Howdy,

Anyone know of any online stores that sell shock mount bushings to suit optima shocks?

Regards

liquidrc.com have GPM ones that are a perfect copy. I don't remember how they were labeled though... definitely not as 'optima shock bushings'

Thanks Mr Ed,

much appreciated.

Sorry; I found the header card in my boxes and looked it up on liquidrc. They don't have that part anymore.
In the past I often used thick fuel tubing instead

Hello Caesar, you'll want Kyosho part number ST-15 from Tower Hobbies. They are the same as the gold shock bushes. Chris.

Also forgot to add Towers Manufacturer number. TOWC8550. Chris.

I think these are a perfect fit, and are still available from Kyosho USA & on the bay! Kyosho part # IF137-1 (Vibration Protection Rubber)

If your kids do any arts and crafts, perler beads are about the right size too. They come in many great colors too!

awesome help guys.

Putting in an order now.

Thanks again

These things?
Yeah, I got those..... I think in silver, too.

nice, those gold ones would look great on my turbo optima. I'll need to keep an eye out for those.

I certainly ain't using them, bud...... had that particular pack for at least six years, with no need to bust it out. Happy to offload it....

Sweet, thanks Alex,

Give me a price on those and the shocks.

This is great news, this rubber ones are used on the Scorpion. And If you are lucky you can find LD-76 for about $15-20. So $6-7 is much more suitable

would you be interested in parting with the silver ones?
