Outcast Will 6s shocks fit the 4s Outcast?

[waspmoose]

Hey guys, I know the Typhon shocks will fit the outcast 4s. Would the 6s shocks from the outcast fit the 4s? If not any other options out there for shocks on this beast? Im leaking oil like a sieve.

Where is the oil leaking from?

 

[waspmoose]

from the threaded area on top, I just found this team associated green slime stuff I might try.

 

[Edo7-11]

Shouldn't be leaking from there. Did you try snugging it up?

 

[waspmoose]

yeah its super tight

 

[BashingBrian]

That team associated green slime isn't used for sealing leaks..?

What you could try using is some red gasket sealer, like you would use on your real full size car engine..??

Put small amount on the threads and then assemble the shocks back together....

I'm not sure but they might be a little too stiff if they do.

I’m trying to figure out what 6s shocks fit then using the 4s springs.

Most are within a few mm length wise from what I can tell

The Talion shocks should be a perfect fit.

I currently have the Typhon v4 shocks on mine and they're a little bit too short.

Tailin shocks will work

I have my mojave 6s shocks on mine with the stock 4s springs as well as m2c zrs shock caps and it has been working with no problems/leaks etc. You going to need the axial bushings for them shocks thou part#axia1356

TA Green Slime will do nothing for leaks at the top cap threads. GS is only used for lubing the Shock O-rings and bottom cartridge, even before the O-rings are worn out, is best. O-rings need to be replaced if they are worn or torn up.
Your leak may be due to the Bladder /seal incorrectly seated, damaged/ torn or the cap is cross threaded/ loose perhaps. If you overfill the shocks, causing hydrolock, the oil will blow out past the bottom cartridge/seals or at the top cap.
6S alloy shocks are flawless if you can install them instead. Best way. May need to use a thinner oil since the V2 4s rigs are lighter than most 6s rigs.

And still going strong.

Helping me still. Just got my Kraton 4S V2 and had broken shock from factory along with missing spring. Looking into upgrades or what I can do to use mine for the first time. Figured best to upgrade if it broke straight from factory, how would it ever stand up to some bashing..?
