They don't come much fatter than LST shocks

Or theres HPI Big Bores

HPI big bore next to a stock shock.

 

[frddyj]

London, them's some phat shocks man.

 

[Londoner]

Aye Freddy, i do miss my LST's for the look but the weight saved by using HPI big bores over them is huge.

 

[Dooley]

The LST's will add a bit of extra weight to your truck with the mounting kits and what not.

The HPI big bores are a direct bolt and not a huge weight difference over stock shocks.

From my experience with LST shocks. The IRC mounting kit is top notch. I would recommend Aluminum shock caps and the shock shafts are a little on the brittle side.

left to right - stock savage shock, HPI Big Bore, LST XXL

comments on these threaded hpi shocks???

 

[Pope]

Ran the hpi threaded shocks till I got the RSC than I had to switch to big bores. I liked them well enough though.

 

[xll-SavageX-llx]

I would go with big bores...

I like my HPI threaded aluminum shocks. BTW, Welcome to HPISF!

Hey guys, i found this hobby shop by my house and they have some Big Bores for $57, but there not aluminum -.- http://hobbyhobby.com/store/product/248474/102365-Big-Bore-Sport-Shock-Set-Assmld-SVG--------/

Are the aluminum any better ???

 

[CTDpower]

You can get the plastic BBs for less than $57, more like $45 or so online I think.

Pretty sure most people on here think they are fine.

From what I've heard they work just as well, but some people think the aluminum ones are smoother.

 

[Londoner]

don't know what these are like, but I've just seen them, probably crap but ya never know.

If I were going for Flux BB's I'd have a punt on the eBay auctions.

[Pope]

30-35 is where I would start

 

[36chambers]

[36chambers]

[Pope]

Either way don't matter much do it how works.

That price for the shocks and mounting kit? Bargain!
Welcome!

By the way, depending how hard you like to bash... you might want to get some spare shock shafts... heard the LSTs are a little week
