Truck shock rebuild
Not to sound like a noob but I was trying to rebuild some truck shocks for a woin project. And when I disassembled them they had like 3 little washers 3 thick washers and 3 little washers. Is this normal for the trucks? I have an updated top load diagram for the buggys and i think its little washer big little but only one not stacked together. Were the using them as some limiters? Thanks in advance "gurus"

Re: Truck shock rebuild
sounds like limiters...remember, buggies (in my opinion) should use the 1.32 rear shock body (same as truck), but 1.02 shock shaft (same as truck front shaft). you use less limiters then. if you have the 1.32 shock shaft, you will need a few limiters to shorten the shock enough for a buggy.

Re: Truck shock rebuild
They were truck shocks and they came from a truck lot. Just making sure that they weren't a little different internally.
