wtf?
I just got new era shocks for my stampede vxl and I can't figure out how to swap the internals of the old shocks into the new aluminum ones.
Anyone help? thanks

yea
I figured it out I had to hold the shaft with some needle nose pliers to get the all joint thing off they did not come with internals and one of them was defective because it wasn't cnc'd out all the way.
On another note, what's a good lipo battery for these things? I'm pretty clear on what charger to get but I'm not sure about the battery the guy at the hobby shop was telling me theres a lipo where you get 3 hours of run time? an hour would be fine for me. I'm just wondering what to look for and will the truck need any upgrades for the lipo speed? They said to get beadlocks?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks.

damn!
I got an onyx charger a 3s lipo (5350) mah and a balancer today damn that thing flies I got the Flightpower battery and balancer its a nice setup. Are there any guidelines on the li po batteries? Like if I let them sit, do I have to charge them because if they discharge all the way I know theres no coming back. Also, what milliamp hours can I charge them at? I shouldn't go over 5.3 right? But I can go lower than that for better runtime?

Yes, never charge any battery over its rated mah (I.E. 1000mah battery should be charged at 1.0amps or less.)
