I haven't owned them, but if it is made my Integy, it will sooner or later bend. More sooner than later though.

For 20 more bucks, you can get a set of power strokes new.

integy shocks are well known for having fragile shock shafts. Like UE maxx said $20 more you could get some Powerstrokes or even UE supershocks.

ok, thanx lol, im looking at powerlines anybody have any expirenece with those, i have heard a few good things about them.

You mean power strokes or prolines right? Not powerlines.

Michowski · (#8 (**permalink**))

integy is garbage unless you like replace there stuff every 2-3 tanks.

Traxxas_Junkee · (#9 (**permalink**))

no they were powerline

ill get a link in a little while

powerline ain't no better than integy. I would stick to used UE (4) supershock setup-$50, used UE knucklehead shock towers (usually come with shock standoffs)-$30, UE motherload shock kit-22...shipping-$8........

That's $110 and you'll be able to rebuild your shocks about four times each with the motherload kit.

OR

powerstrokes for $65-100 depending, but you won't have the UE towers like the deal above. Trade off is your getting used stuff instead of new, but who cares, it's gunna get used anyway.

Man how many drunken posts did I do?

Anyways, let me clarify my post a little.

I had integy shocks for my savage. I bend a shock shaft so bad the shock would just seize every 2 tanks. They were simply garbage. My buddy had integy shocks on his tmaxx, and the caps would always pop off, even on small easy jumps. I guess there wasn't alot of thread available, making the caps pop off super easy.

I would stay away from integy shocks.

ty tune, so what do u guys reccomend besides the powerstrokes?

Michowski · (#15 (**permalink**))

UE shocks or the power strokes. Your better off biting your tongue and buying the good stuff now because in the end it will be cheaper that way.
