Hmmm I actually rate the Bigwig shocks in front of the Super Hornet

More seriously, the Tamiya TRF shocks are great, there have some kind of chrome covering on the inside of the shock body, this, I think is what makes them so good.

Whats the problem with the TC3 shocks? I've got the older non threaded bodys and I hardly touch them, really reliable and very smooth, and no squeeking.

I'm not as impressed with the Hudy Evo 2 Shocks - yet. I've found them very tricky to build but the action is quite good, I have to admit the external damping adjustment is really nice and seems to work, unlike to ones from the Schumaker Bosscat from about 10 years ago.

nerdling - The evo shocks are not the easiest shocks to build, but if you read the building procedure very closely they are very easy, the first time i built them i jumoed a couple of steps, just make sure you put the blabber on first, with the shaft a third in, pull out the shaft and it will pull the bladder in, put the top on, and then the al ring, screw it down and it will be perfect.

Nerdling: Mabe you have that special touch to build team associated shocks, but personaly i dont. i have no idea why, but i just dont!!!
Anyway, i rebuilt the shocks, and now there is hardly any speeking whatsoever, and the rebound actualy is working.

are you sure you want rebound? shouldn't the spring be the rebound and the oil the bound?

What? the rebound when you compress the shock without the spring, and then it slowly comes back out again. Thats what im talking about anyway.
