I think You-G is the right answer for both gold shocks. Thanks gomachv. 

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.
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.

Thanks for the relatively quick answer...scr8p wrote:that would be a team pit stop nova chassis. rc10 rear, traxxas front. used andy's trailing arms.

Nice thanks for the ID.highwayracer wrote:...
As for the other shocks, #3 is for a Great Vigor Beagle (optima clone).
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 ...
Holy cow I'm impressed...scr8p wrote:that would be a team pit stop nova chassis. rc10 rear, traxxas front. used andy's trailing arms.
