![]() The body has a double o-ring seal where the shock shaft exits with seal retainers and a metal retaining clip to hold everything in place. The shock bodies are hard anodized for extra smooth shock action. In fact they are built exactly like (or better than) most 1/10 and 1/8 scale shocks. The shocks come fully assembled for convenience however they are fully rebuildable. None of this matters if you are still running the stock shock and tower setup…it is a direct fit. ![]() We found that with our aluminum tower, the threads were slightly different and we had to really ease the top pivots into place. A note for those of you who are running Losi aluminum shocks right now and are going to make the switch like we did…you will need to dig through your spare parts box, locate and install the original gold colored ball pivots to mount the top of the shock. The top shock mount that protrudes from the cap is plastic. Not only do they look good but aluminum shock caps are also less likely to flex and pop off during big landings (Losi shocks have a plastic cap). This is a big bonus (anyone who has the Losi’s will agree).Īnother sweet feature on the RE shocks is the top cap itself, it is blue anodized aluminum and really adds some extra “bling” to the package. This provides a better seal than the thin plastic washer the Losi’s use (the ones that leak all the time unless you double or triple stack them). The RE (Racer’s Edge) shocks are a top load design and the shock cap seals via an o-ring. We have been bashing them for the past month or so and here’s what we found! Racer’s Edge offers a Mini-T shock set that we just had to try out. Racer’s Edge to the rescue!īYT has been running the Team Losi Shock upgrade for quite some time and they have worked pretty well, except for the frequent leaks. One of the biggest weak points on the Mini-T is the cruddy friction shocks it comes with. And if you own one or have ever driven one, you understand why. RACER’S EDGE MINI-T HARD COATED ALUMINUM SHOCK SETĮven with the latest assault of 1/18 scale mini RC vehicles, the Mini-T is still a hot player in this category.
