Granite shocks on a typhon

[Asus127]

Evening all. Bought a typhon that requires oil in all shocks and possibly new seals. Not sure but would the granite shock system fit the typhon.

Not sure what setup with be ideal for the typhon as I'm new to the arrma collection.

Thanks

If it is a 3s Typhon then the 3s Granite shocks will fit. Most of the 3s BLX parts are interchangeable.

All shocks require oil.

The Granite, Typhon, Senton and Big Rock Crew cab 3s all use the same shocks. The Mega models use different rate springs.

I'm running 40 wt. In my 3s typhons. I believe that is stock also.

Nice one mate but how the hell do I get the top off. Tried putting a screwdriving through the top whilst the plastic being being clamped. Going to snap something but ain't undoing. Tried two shocks now and both the same. Any tips?
