I really want to put Kyosho gold shocks on my Scorpion, but they are just too tall. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I think I figured it out = CRP part 1536 should extend it up for the back shocks (and its on Ebay). This site has so much good info!

The back shocks look and work great. Any advice on how to modify the front to fit gold shocks (I already have a longer front base, but I need taller mounts)?
Thanks for the help!

This is the last part needed for my runner. I noticed in the showrooms that there was a MRP front set for the Scorpion that had longer towers. Any specifics or alternate ideas, thank you!

I made 6mm longer front towers for my Turbo Scorpion. That suits the short gold shocks perfectly.

At the rear, the medium length damper shaft works perfectly with the stock alloy towers.

You can see the gold shocks on my white TS here:

Nice TS you have!
Good to know about the medium length shocks fitting stock rear tower.
Race Prep also made a rear tower for the gold shocks.
I am going to use Gallop 2 shocks on my racer.
