those o-rings are like rocking horse poo in the UK. Anybody got a spare set they can sell me as the oil just drops out of my shocks with the kit o-rings?

Hey guys, just curious if anyone in here is from the US, like myself, and knows where to get these new shock o-rings? Great design, can't wait to try them! Every store here has the standard ones that come with the kit. Secondly, while we are on the subject of shocks, I can't remember what you UK guys have been doing to get more droop out of your front shocks? With summer right around the corner, we are all moving outside to larger, rougher tracks here in the US. I'm gonna need a bit more travel out of my front shocks. The rears are great.... even with the 6mm droop insert! I just don't understand why Kyosho would offer so much adjustment to the rear shocks and none up front? Have you guys tried using any different shock shafts up front that are a bit longer?

[nick oliver]

There are new shock ends been brought out for front by kyosho.. there out now Thats what alot of use have been doing to get more droop then adjust it from there

[shorty89]

this probaly aint the right place to put this but have any of u guys had a problem wid the front hinge pins popping out of the blocks, and do have any idea how to solve it other than packing it out as that makes the front stiff

Hi,

Sounds like you've missed out the small plastic sleves that you put over the end of the hinge pins that in turn slip quite snugly into the blocks. Check your instructions and check that they are there...

The only time mine have popped out is when i got wiped out by a flying b4...

Hope that helps.

Another Kyosho plastic part from another car I believe, K.LA43. Longer 5.8mm Ball Ends, cut 3mm off or what suits.
