Granite Shocks replacement upgrade

[Drtybird]

Yes, just change shock oil with 50 wt

Is 50w. What comes in the factory shocks. I bought a set of big bore for mine and they come without oil

Are these a perfect replacement for Big Rock 3s blx?

We are 17 pages in. Which shocks are you referring to? And honestly there really isn’t a direct replacement for any of the 3s shocks.

@WoodiE maybe we should sticky this?

I say still think this needs to be made a sticky.

Look like a new product, but then again it is GPM, their products are kind of iffy on quality and durability. It's all cast scrap aluminum and butter soft plastic. A lot of their products are more for show than for go.
And at that price you might as well spend the extra $4 for the Arrma 6s Typhon shocks.

Agree!

So after skimming through 17 pages, I don’t feel like I know what shocks to upgrade. I'm new to the RC hobby and my kid and I broke the plastic guard on the bottom of one of the front shocks. Can I get the ones for the Typhon and do those have the plastic guards? we have a Granite Mega 4x4

 

[arrmadillo]

Typhon, yes
Guards, no

 

[Gnolam]

Typhon, yes
Guards, no

Here is the hereo we need, but do not deserve.

You want shocks from the Typhon 6s not the the Typhon 3s.

Talion shocks will work too but you will need to change the oil and the springs to Typhon springs....I used 40f/45r shock oil.

Hi,

I don't know if here are more from Europe, but I have changed the stock shock to new one from conrad. they fit perfect front and rear.

Maybe some can use them too

1. I hit the corner of a brick planter at full throttle
2. I hit a softball size rock at half throttle.
3. I hit the back of my plastic launch ramp at full throttle.

#3 nice....

Yes, just change shock oil with 50 wt

They worked and are actually quite good to be well you know..

Can we please make this thread a sticky already? @WoodiE

These work as well. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Alum-81002...-Gold-Fit-RC-HSP-1-8-Buggy-Truck/332314394107

Just got these in silver. I will be finishing the install after I get spacer washers for the tops of the shocks. They seem like they'll be great. Pretty stiff and actually pretty rigid. Time will tell. I bash like @bicketybam

What pivot balls are you all using on the top mount of eBay shocks?
