Yes, Atomic Carobon make a tower set and top deck which enables the use of XX4 shocks. It places the rear shocks at at rear of the car (as opposed to in front of the rear wishbones, they are behind)

I raced the BJ4we this way at the F345 finals and thought it was superb - I do think it helps, makes the car a bit more planted over the rough stuff - particularly at the rear.

You can just bolt the atomic carbon towers on if you want, but you do need a spacer plate for the front tower as it mounts slightly different.

Infact you can use the bj4 front tower with Losi shocks. It's at the rear that you need a slightly taller tower to run the Losi shocks. If you bolt the Atomic carbon to to the back you will need a set of rear shocks with 1.0" rear shafts, not the 1.2" shafts from a XX4.

Take a look the atomic website http://www.atomic-carbon.co.uk (http://www.atomic-carbon.co.uk/)

As enticing as running losi shocks sounds, Im afraid there is no setup information for them. So, it might be your best bet to pick up some yoke caps and stick it out with the AE shocks.
