Broken shock shaft

I too, broke one of mine while swapping them for my Micro-T shocks to lower the ride height. I like it so I just bought another set of Micro-T shocks. I swapped the bottom ends to use the ball mount on the bottom and reamed the hole just a bit on the top of the T shocks and used some tiny screws to mount them on the chassis. I think I'll eventually get four aluminum rear micro-T shocks for it. I bought a screw set for the little Tamiya 4wd racers. There are a lot of these parts that will come in handy....

sooooooo, if micro T and DT shocks seem to work and lower the ride height, what about these micro t upgrade oil shocks?

Yeah, that's the type of shocks I'm talking about getting. I want to get two pairs of rear shocks, though. There are sellers on EBay that you can just buy front shocks or rear. They may not be the absolute best, but with a little teflon tape on the threads, there's no leaks.
