Hi Guys,

So who is running the new Atomic Carbon upgrade parts.
Whats your thought on these.
Just ordered myself some of the Front & rear shock towers.

Also hear some ppl been running Losi shocks on the cats, cause thier bigger volume for shock oil etc.
Anybody here tried it?

ive been running the attomic carbon top deck which is nice

i also tryed the towers with standared shocks on which inproved the car overall i was just testing these and went to losi shocks without the towers and it was even better in my opinion defo worth running losi shocks in me eyes

just for a fun wild shot in the dark...

Front
black or red piston
green springs
30-35wt oil

Rear
orange or blue piston
pink springs
27.5 or 30wt oil

I have always found that to be a reasonable start no matter what 4WD car you bold a set of Losi shocks on

*** please note, this is just a wild shot in the dark, I have never ran a cat ***

Jonathan and I were testing the AC upgrade parts at the last round of Coventry and I must say they have improved an already brilliant car especially over the bumpy sections of the track.

I now run the new Schumacher Lipo friendly chassis with AC Lipo locating part, top deck, front and rear shock mounts. :thumbsup:

Not tried the Losi shocks so I cannot comment :wtf:

Can you buy the Losi shocks as a complete set or do you have to buy
all the parts separately? I presume you have to get a set of Losi springs,
or can you use the Cat ones? Thanks

Does anyone know what shock we need to use on the Cat SX.
Part numbers would be great & where can i buy them from cause you dont see alot stuff on the net or Losi explained very well
