I remember Lars telling me that hornet shocks are 74mm center of eye to eye
I’ve since found out that this sort of info can be found in the parts database, a very useful tool :y:
I ended up up using 75 mm fastrax alloy shocks

depends a bit on how the damper are build and how they are attached to the car. The Lunchbo wont bottom out that fast, the tires will hit the body first, with standard front arms there will be at least 2cm left.

Ok rear is bit more difficult but dont think a bottom out will be a problem either guess tires will hit body first aswell

Rear full compressed
