Not sure if im honest but i do know that its hard to find springs for them, they're alot bigger than say ansmann or losi big bores, a guy at my club had some...

Bargain if they do fit though!

Dont forget the macnum uses different shock towers and longer shocks than a madrat though... :)

Check the item before asking :) ...it lists them quite clearly as 1:8th.. they probably will be far to big.

I'm running the Teflon Traxxas Shocks on my X-Pro and they are proving to be quite good so far but as they are over £50 and you seem to be seeking cheap shocks maybe look into the plastic ones, the Traxxas Ultra shocks.

Wheelspin Listings for Shocks (http://www.wheelspinmodels.co.uk/s/?q=traxxas+ultra+shocks&x=0&y=0)

The 'long' and 'XX Long' are the ones... with maybe the Alloy Caps.
