Hi,

Can anyone give me any dimensions (overall diameter, thickness and centre hole diameter) for Losi 10th scale pistons? I am trying to see if they will fit my micro big bore shocks...

If someone has some red/pink ones to spare, that would be ace, and I will kindly take them off your hands.

Thanks,

Mark

The associated pistons have the same diameter than the losi ones.

Maybe try them?

Here you'll have all you are looking for or almost, (http://www.petitrc.com/setup/OffRoadShockPistonChart.pdf) just no thickness.

Had a quick look at this idea on Friday night. The AE/Losi pistons look to be a good fit in the 3Racing shocks. However the hole size is quite abit bigger on the 1/10th pistons, plus they have atleast 2holes.

You could always try the AE blank pistons and drill them yourself to a good size for the 1/18th setup, say about 1mm.

Already tried this I'm afraid, and neither the AE or Losi pistons will quite fit in the 3racing LST shocks.

The stock 3racing pistons are a similar shape to the Losi tho, but the holes will need to be drilled out to 1.10 mm which is the same as the Losi red pistons.

2 holes would be good, and try 35wt front oil and 30wt rear as a starter :thumbsup:
