This has probably been discussed before but I want to know what are the best shocks you have used or are currently using on your scx10. Post pictures also if you have some.
I have a rtr scx10 and I was looking to upgrade the stock shocks.
Can those get filled with oil? And what oil weight would you recomend for a scale truck?
 
The stock scx shocks are oil filled. For what it is, I think they are decent shocks. Stock oil is 30wt i believe. The stock setup is pretty capable and I doubt they should be your first upgrade.

The most popular upgraded shock have got to be the Pro-Line Powerstrokes and the Traxxas Big Bore (xxl size.) both of these will probaly add some ground clearance too.
 
im using RC4WD 100mm threaded shocks from my old TIMBERWOLF they look/work great. look in this section for SCX10 BUILD you can see them in the pics. not the best pic but you get the idea

Im using the prolines, I didnt see any differance, except looks and money. And if you want stiffer springs they cost.
I thought they where a waste of money that could have been used on something else.
 
Hi,
I'm using stock shocks with aluminum body,no bumpers, soft/supersoft front springs and supersoft/supersoft rears.
It works great..."thumbsup"
