These should work for you if you have TRF shocks.... Tamiya 42137 competition o rings
Tamiya 53979 piston rod guide set

Not sure who you should go thru on your side of the pond...

Beware that the competition o-rings may require some shims added to flatten them, in order to stop leaking. I got tired of doing this and simply use the normal orange ones now.

Interesting, havent heard that. I havent used them yet but I know of someone who has and they hadnt mentioned any issues with them. Will have to ask him about that.

Blue=competition ones. (Or much more, same same).

Jan is correct, you have shim the blue ones.
That´s one of the benefits/ideas with the piston rod guide set.
