For approx same $ you could pickup a set of losi crawler shocks, built properly they are butter smooth and you have a large selection of springs/rates to choose from, and they are easily rebuildable with cheap rebuild kits. Could be the last shocks you will EVER need for your super.....

Not Losi but what y'all think about these? Price for four isn't too bad. Cant find a deal on the Losi shocks on ebay.

they don't have threaded adjusters by looking at the pic.and they are 94 mm. the losi shocks i think are 110mm and you'll have more wheel travel/articulation. and they are 60 bucks at the lhs.

They are adjustable, if you scroll down on the link, theres some larger images and they do come in different lengths. My LHS doesnt carry the Losi crawler shocks.
