Googling a bunch brings up the Cox Pheonix, it's cool whatever it is. You could get a piece of smaller tubing and run it inside to put it back together.

Look at this link:

Hey guys, Got these shocks and a pair of tires in a recent purchase. Can anyone tell me what they are off of?

Thanks,
Dave

Shocks are aluminum, bottom loads, with plastic rod ends.

Tires appear to be 2.0" size, Only markings are "Made in Italy"

Shocks look like Kyosho CB's. I dont know my lengths to know if they are the long or short.

Thank you sir, That's what they appear to be. (Man I love the knowledge here!) Looks like on mine the previous owner must have stripped most of the red on the bodies. And as far as lengths go I haven't a clue either. I guess if I sell them I will just post them as Kyosho CB shocks?

I didn't even see the slight yellow/orange tint on the bodies until I looked at the pictures, so maybe these are color stripped...
