I was just curious if there is a clear advantahe for having the shock piston floating in oil like yokomo shocks. I have the long ends on the rear shocks and theyre fine> At full droop, the shocks are extended just about half way. Front shocks have short ends and they are fully extended before the droop screw touches the deck. Front droop is about 4-5 on the yokomo droop guage.

I'm using TRF shocks also but to solve your problem, use the YOKOMO Shock ends, so you could also use the stock YOKOMO Spring retainer. And like what the others have suggested, use the hard arms.

Also, with your Rayspeed chassis are you using the plastic towers or the Rayspeed Ones?? If not get the Rayspeed towers. like thew ones on the CGM in the link below.

look here:
