RC10T aftermarket shocks and tyres

Post by BenzoRC10T »

Hi all, looking from part numbers, brands or suppliers/companies that have aftermarket shocks and tyres for my RC10T as I'd like to dust it off and start racing it again in my local track in short course truck event. Thanks for any advice.

Pretty much any short coarse truck shock will be close to the correct length. Whatever shock you choose will need the correct bushings and/or standoffs for mounting.

I just modified a set of Associated Rival MT10 shocks for use on a older car. I used shorter shafts all around and different spring cups on the front.


But I have to say that I still like a set of freshly rebuilt team shocks. The originals were and still are respectable shocks. Unless they are damaged, they probably don't need much more than new o rings.



Tires are easy. Pro-Line, JConcepts, Schumacher, and Panther all still make 2.2 stadium truck tires.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Ok cool mate, I'm happy to rebuild shocks but was curious as to what people are running these days. Thanks again I'll have a look around.

Biggest upgrade is to grab the shocks off of the newer SC AE trucks....................................
