Outcast shock question

[beefy nugz]

I just broke a shock piston and severely bent the shaft. for the price on a set of pistons and shafts, I feel like I should just buy the complete set of shocks for $5 more.

my question is, will rear typhon shocks fit in place of the rear outcast shocks?

also does anybody think I should upgrade? didn't really see much options for aftermarket shocks on ebey

thanks, Beefy!

When in doubt, Tekno.

I am in the same boat. I have an Outcast v1 and I can't seem to find the part number for the shaft.

Was looking around on the tekno website. Didn't see anytging listed for tge outcast. Do you have a part number?

Just get on eBay and type in outcast shock shaft

well I couldn't find any info on upgraded shocks, so I just ordered the stock ones. hopefully they'll last longer this time around, although I doubt it...

If you get the v3 shocks off of the kraton they have a 4mm shock shaft.

I was just thinking about this. I have a front shock spring that is bent a little bit. Since the new shocks appear to use new springs, does it make sense to replace with the original springs or get the new front shocks with the thicker shock shafts?

 

[beefy nugz]

If just the spring is a little bent, I wouldn't worry about it. If the shock shaft is slightly bent, then just take a hammer and a little bit of love to it and save the cheddar!

its working now, but its causing the dust boot to get mashed up. eventually its going to need to get replaced.

Ahh I got u. Sounds like a good time to upgrade springs then. I run tekno springs. They're 8 bucks a pair
