Just got a set of these for a Losi Nightcrawler project and for $20 for a set of 4 they are real decent! Going to throw some derlin DLUX pistons in them and call it a day.

I have a set of TooMod 90mm shocks from Amazon. I bought them on a whim and don't have anywhere to try them yet but to their credit the inside of the plastic bag is completely dry, no oil leaks from non-use. So that's a plus.

They got good reviews for not leaking which was good enough for me to order a set. The springs seem too stiff but they fit normal Axial, Traxxas and Element/FT springs.

Curious how yours work out.

I have been playing with my axial 10iii builders kit shocks which were way to stiff when first installed. I first changed the springs to the stock Traxxas gts springs that come on the 90mm Shock. This effectively lowered the ride hieght but the springs are still stiff and flop around on the Shock because they are so short compared to the 100mm 10iii shocks. I then lowered the lower Shock mounting point to the links and that lowered the ride even more. Last night I ordered a set of axial super soft springs so that combined with the lowered shock mounting should be dialed or close.

They call it Oil Slick...which makes it more palatable. haha

I got a set of those and they have this weird threaded aluminum plug in the bottom. There is no tooling provision to tighten, no way to adjust tension and it's sorta loose. Pistons are also rough. Most likely trash fodder for me.

Yep. Just noticed that on mine as well
Not leaking yet and might just grab some traxxas 2660 pistons for $5 a set and traxxas o-rings for $6 a set and drill 2 small holes in the bottom caps and use small snap rings pliers to tighten them or loosen them.

Saves me about $40 a set compared to some others and has the offset shock cap that i want. So might be worth it to me at this point to fix them up a bit. Already spent over $250 buying several sets of dlux shocks and can't stomach paying anymore
