Well built smooth shock, bleed screw nice addition for shocks this size compared to Losi bottom fills.. Springs included are high spring rate.. 25wt oil (shocks arrive unfilled), and the stock Black Springs seem just about right..
Did not include the cap screws, which is a problem because the eyelets are larger than the o.g. factory hardware, and without some tiny washers or other modifications, they don't fit. The eyelets are literally larger than the heads of the original screws.
If you have the Losi Mini-T or B, these shocks are a must for racing. There are a couple important things I did to make these shocks feel perfect and it starts by ditching the blue springs that these come with and stick with the stock black springs that your Losi Mini-T or B come with. I used Associated 40 wt. shock oil in the front and Associated 30 wt. in the rear for carpet racing and these are super smooth and consistent. I hope this review helps and have fun racing!
Reviewers generally describe the shocks as well built and smooth, with the included bleed screw viewed as a useful feature for shocks this size. Two of three reviews are from verified owners rating five stars; they note the stock black springs suit the Mini-T or B, and one reviewer prefers them over the supplied high-rate springs. Oil is not included, so shocks arrive unfilled and buyers must supply silicone oil; one reviewer used 25wt and another used 40wt front and 30wt rear. The main recurring problem is the missing cap screws: one reviewer reports the eyelets are larger than the original hardware heads, so the shocks do not fit without washers or modifications.
