    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    I got them installed! I also put 60wt shock oil, it’ll probably need thicker if I get to building more jumps.

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Update: I ordered four Hot Racing shock bodies. I’ll replace all four and probably get some harder oil. I also got a set of the stock shock caps because I couldn’t find the Hot Racing ones. What’s green slime?

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Thank you so much for this Reddit article! I knew a lot about most of these upgrades but not in this depth. Also, with the Hot Racing shock bodies do you need anything else or do they work with the stock shock caps and shock rods?

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    The SW-0250MGP? It’s half the price of SW-1250MGP with hardly different specs. These are GTR shocks, they just have the composite shock bodies. Definitely not ultra shocks…

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Update: I reassembled the shock one more time and it happened again on another major crash. I looked in my manual and I found #TRA7066X GTR anluminum shock body and #TRA7063T TiN shafts. I’ll probably also be getting #TRA5114 bearings for in the steering. Any suggestions for upgrade servos?

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Does anyone have any recommendations on what wt shock oil to use? I’m thinking 50-60wt, but I can always change the springs.

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    Has anyone had any experience with the GPM mini e-revo shocks?

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    I think they still have the shock bodies. Hot Racing also makes some

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    I can’t find a metal shock cap anywhere. There are a few aluminum shock bodies, though They also don’t make limiter straps for the merv

    Merv shock cap keeps pulling off

    So this actually happened twice; the first time it happened because of a failed landing from 1’ in the air. I just refilled the shock and came out today, and it happened again, this time from traction rolling. For context, I’m running on a dirt oval with a few exposed roots and some loose dirt...
