Lets chat B3s

Post by RC4X4 »

Hi all, putting together a B3 and wanted to see some shock ideas. Im really happy with the 12mm shocks on my "updated" c tub. Has anyone went this direction with their b3s?Becuase I dont have any shocks, Im leaning toward 12mm. Your thoughts......

Yes, you are seeing correctly. I used the Custom Works kit. However you can go other routes, such as using B6 parts.

More info on how I did mine in the build thread - https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=47089
