Actually ...they look better now ....refresh your page, I had the pics of the old shocks on my server :-) ...no the tamiya ball cups provide enough clearance for the caps to clear, NOTHING binds on the shocks, I had driven a 3 mm screw from front to back so they wouldn't pop off the ball cup and it bound them a little bit so I added a cone washer:



The only "issue" I see is that the shocks are kind of at an angle not bad but at an angle nontheless, just looks wierd, not sure if it affects the performance. I was gonna add some washers to fix that, but it looked to "ghetto" ...that's where I think the pdub ones would solve that issue without looking ghetto

...BTW I though about that after I posted the pics ...an xray pic on the Scheuy thread ...I'm TOAST
