Typhon The best shock upgrade

[Avyn Nix]

Hello Arrma forum I’m wanting to know what is the best shocks or upgrades in general for the typhon 3s.

"Best" is rather subjective, but shocks that are much better than the stockers can be found in this forum thread. Lots and lots to pick from!

A lot of people use the 6s Typhon shocks as an upgrade

Awesome I noticed that was an option but at little pricey.

Thanks these should suffice, but what would be the most less likely to leak?

You check Jenny's rc?

Oh I see they’re $50 for 2 so not that bad considering they will probably never break being that the buggy is only 8lbs.
How would the gpm ones be? They have 4mm shock shafts.

Only $30 too.

Least likely to leak are basically the ones from HPI, Kyosho, Arrma 6s/TLR, OFNA, and Losi. The ZD shafts still tend to bend.

Ok good to know any bend shafts? How hard are you bashing them?

No bends, no leaks, bashing hard no 15ft jumps around but if its in my way i'm airborne. I bash all my rc's even on road; so if i can't break it im not bashing it hard enough...

Ok good to know, you see 20-30ft jumps what a want to do with it but have it its first test run and the shocks bent off of a 15ft jump, so do you think that those will still hold up?

Idk to be honest.. I'm not sure but if your trying to go that big you might want to go with the 6s shocks..

I have a 6s talion I’d do that with but I’m trying to see if the small 3s typhon is worth it to be cheaper or not.
