Senton 3S replacement shocks

Until he bend another one or breaks off the rod end.

Yeah, worried about bending more. My plan is to continually upgrade at least one of these Sentons as things break so I can learn how to build.

If you want something drop in that doesn't require much for mods then the Proline power strokes are your best bet, but they aren't cheap nearly $140 for both pairs.
Front https://www.prolineracing.com/performance-parts/power-stroke-shocks-arrma-front.asp
Rear https://www.prolineracing.com/performance-parts/power-stroke-shocks-arrma-rear.asp

Otherwise this is your best bet
Use these in the front https://jennysrc.com/collections/ar...rings-4mm-hd-ara7604v2?variant=32980066172982

Use these in the rear https://jennysrc.com/collections/ar...st-assembled-dampers-springs-red-new-ar106040

Use these in the shock caps to take up the space Axial AXA1356 Silicone Shock Bushing, 7.5 x 8mm https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0051W7R1M/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_VS5DWDY6294Q5DMQ14T8

Use the small spacers in this set to space out the bottom screws so the shocks don't rub on the driveshafts https://www.amazon.com/Hot-Racing-P.../dp/B00XF8HFQ6?ref_=d6k_applink_bb_dls_failed

You will also need some longer screws for the lower shock mounts stock is m3x16 you will probably want some m3x18 screws.

Hello,

Long time lurker first time poster.

Has anyone tried the Hobao Hyper SS shocks?

Reading the shock thread it says the front shock length is 108 but on jennys it says 118
says the rears are 125 but 129 on jennys.

Was wondering did they change them or someone have a typo?

Thanks

Jennys must have changed it because I copied the eye to eye measurements they had listed.

Ok. So do you think they'll still work?

If it's off by a couple of mm, then all you have to do is to- either find some small rubber O-rings and add them to the interior side of the shaft to shorten the length to what you need (or get some silicone nitro fuel tubing and cut them down to use the same way as what I just described.)

You might be able to get them to work but like @Tex Koder said you will want to shorten them. There is a video on how to shorten shocks in the shock thread.
