Big Rock Recommendations for Big Rock shocks

Hello,
are this aluminum shocks from Arrma good?

ARA330677

Because I want to buy for my shocks some springs, where I lost one, after a stunt. But to pay the shipping for only some springs, I want to buy some spare parts, that it's more worthy and my idea is to buy some new shocks. But looking around in the internet, I found these Arrma aluminum shocks.
I read here in the forum, that the Pro-Line shocks are good ones, but they are very expensive. For a complete set I could buy the Wltoys 144010 buggy.
Maybe someone has some other recommendations.

Get the 6s shocks, its a big rock not a race buggy lol.

It's pretty obvious that no one reads any of the sticky threads are even bothers to use the search function.

Do the Big Rock body fits after I installed the Typhon 6S shocks? Because they have an bigger diameter.

Imagine if there was a sticky with all of this information at the top of this section.

Kinda like the search function that seems to be invisible to many also!

Seriously check out the sticky on this. There is everything one needs to know in the one thread on this. Right there st the top of the 4x4 page....

I followed the sticky thread and got the Typhon shocks for the rear on my Big Rock and then went for GPM for the front shocks. Very very happy with the upgrades.

Got notification from JenRC last noght that they had the front and rear TLRs back in stock so I ordered a complete set. Have nothing to install them on but I’ll get to that soon.

Better to have and not need than need and not have ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well what is the difference between the basic and the TLR shocks from the Typhon 6S?
Cause maybe I will buy them, but I think if I find them used in nearly new conditions.

TLR Tuned black TLR branded shocks with machined tapered shock pistons, machined shock guides and X-ring Seals

I googled for TLR and see that is Team Losi Racing.
Okay, maybe I can get a set of TLR shocks for a good price.
Btw, are Arrma, Axial and Losi the same company?

No they are all subsidiaries of Horizon Hobby. Think of it like Chevy, Buick and Cadillac they are each their own brand owned by General Motors.

As far as TRL shocks go this is literally going to be the cheapest place to get them.

Well I will see if I can find them here in the EU. Cause I think I have to pay fees at the customs and then I end up with the same thing.

Idk if you can buy complete TLR shocks from Arrma, you will have to buy them piece by piece.

Around 78 Euro for the front and rear shocks, with fast shipping. Hmmm... I wish to know, if I have not to pay the extra fees. Because without the customs fees it would be a good price.

I would buy Typhon 6S shocks instead.

buy the front and rear specific for the big rock or would the BR need just the rears? Trying to understand what works


Edit; I found the sticky. Disregard

 

[MrTitanium]

Just installed the TLR units on my BRCC. Printed a few custom spacers for the top. Zero issues.

Those look sharp on there!
If you have any traxxas shock spacers those work a treat also. Thats what I used when I went to Inferno shocks on my big rock

 

[RC-Gonzo]

Okay I finally ordered the TLR shocks. But what kind of pivot balls I have to use, that the shocks fit with the screws from the Big Rock?
