I was told these were You-G, looks the same as the far left.Phin wrote:Let's see if I can stump yous again.Picked up a nice shocks lot last week and need help identifying a couple of them.
I know I've seen the two gold before (the second one just recently) but can't remember where. The silver one kind of looks like a Kyosho Scorpion shock but the shock cartridge is different. The red plastic one is likely from some cheapo Radio Shack or Nikko car...the lot had some RS Golden Arrow parts included.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Thanks Gunther, i've tried them on some RW spurs i have and they fit perfectly, they also fit the layshaft of the Cougar/Topcat so looks like they're for SchumachersV12 wrote: The top 2 are spur adapters for sure. I have some what are looking identical and they are made by RW. I think they should be for a Kyosho car maybe a Lazer but you need using RW spurs from my knowledge.

The you-g shocks used different types of ends for different cars. I had some for the hornet that had the large round ball.JK Racing wrote:I was told these were You-G, looks the same as the far left.Phin wrote:Let's see if I can stump yous again.Picked up a nice shocks lot last week and need help identifying a couple of them.

As for the other shocks, #3 is for a Great Vigor Beagle (optima clone).

You can have it for free if you like.... might have to charge you wounded-bull style for postage, though.....

There's something about aftermarket parts that need other aftermarket parts made by a different company ...

Nice thanks for the ID.highwayracer wrote:...

Is it an aftermarket upgrade to the RC10 or the Traxxas? Or is it enough of neither that legally Trackmaster could claim the Nova isn't an upgrade kit at all, but it's own car.EvolutionRevolution wrote:There's something about aftermarket parts that need other aftermarket parts made by a different company ...
