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

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.
I was told these were You-G, looks the same as the far left.

After Googling You-G shocks I'm thinking the end cap on the first gold shock belongs on the second gold one.

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 Schumachers :)

The you-g shocks used different types of ends for different cars. I had some for the hornet that had the large round ball.

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

Thanks for the relatively quick answer... :lol:

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

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

Nice thanks for the ID. :D

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. :wink:
