Am I wrong or does the MT410 seem to have more droop than the ET48?
If anyone has any good recommendations on longer shocks that fit (maybe the stock ET48 rear shocks moved to the front and some other brand shocks in the back maybe? Like Losi XXL2 shocks?)

Sorry for the multiple posts.... But I've decided (after reading the first 12 pages of this) that I'm gonna convert my EB48.3 into a true MT410.
So now that I've got the body mounts that I should be able to Jerry Rig... Do I just need the chassis and a shorter rear dog bone and can make this happen?
Also a body of course... I'm going 2017 Raptor as well.
Again - my ET48.3 is just too darn easy to drive! Haha.

No those are like the proline trenchers with a zero offset.
These are the ones your looking for.

I'm using it on my MT410 and have used them before. Great all around tire.

I just wanted to vouch for these tires and this website as well. I am running these on my ET48, and will likely keep using after the conversion.

Well, I finally got some paint on my Proline Racing 2017 Ford Raptor Body. Can wait to run my Tekno MT 410 with it. It's been long over due. As my Cali brothers know. It's been raining and cool. Which is not ideal for painting. But my patience for better weather ran out.
I took a chance. Three days and sometimes nights. Is what it took to paint this body and a ton of waiting for paint to dry. Hence the three day paint period.
Challenging to say the least, but here is the outcome.

Yes, the MT has more available mechanical droop at the shocks. This is because the shock tower is shorter and narrower than the ET shock tower. The only thing that should be limiting droop on the MT is where the arm and droop screw hit the chassis' droop adjustment tabs.
