Send it along mate (mooplea at the ever so popular hotmail dot com website) Makes more sense not having to tilt yer head huh! lol

I have adobe indesign here, I guess its not a biggie to rotate it but I'd probaly turn it into a 500 meg file at the same time

Hi everybody, hi Jimmy,

Could someone confirm me that the Asso springs can be fitted on the Yokomo shocks, please? And so, the same as for the B4? I'd like to buy the BX, so would like to buy the good springs too...;-)

Also, I think I can see on Jimmy's pictures that the Team drivers use the Asso shocks : is it? Why?

Many thanks for your help!


PS to Jimmy : I'm a prof sport photographer, just would like to tell you that your pictures (actions and others) are of a verrrry high quality, honnestly!! :thumleft: :thumleft: You have a very good eye, as we say!

Hi mate!
The associated springs fit fine, from memory I think they are a tight fit around the shock bottoms, but they do fit and work well. The included shocks are great - as for some drivers using Associated shocks, like neil cragg, I know they run the rear shocks and different (higher) rear tower to alter the handling.
But to put it into perspective all the box-standard BX cars at the first UK national were in the A final (apart from mine of course! hehe), the ones with modified rear towers / associated shocks etc were in the B final.. So - stick with the standard stuff!

I'm not sure about shock pistons but maybe that is another reason the team drivers might run AE shocks, since the BX comes with unknown pistons and no additional ones for tuning - same for springs. They all know the B4 shocks - so no experimenting is needed.
The BX shocks are close in many ways to the AE ones, so perhaps the AE pistons fit- anyone know ??


Thanks for the kind comments also! and good luck with your BX if you get it - very nice to build.

there is a very easy fix to stop pins coming out , you simple cut a very small piece of heat shrink tubing and heat it up over the end of the cvd , just enough to cover were the pin goes round like MM wide

They aren't CVD's tho, they are Universal Joints, so I dont thing its possible since it would interfere with the movement of the joint. I have some heatshrink on my b4 cvd's because I couldnt find the threadlock
