Suspension Swapping - Rising Figheter/Neo Fighter

[SNAKEBITE]

My son has decided he would like a suspension upgrade on his Rising Fighter.

I was going to upgrade my Neo Fighter shocks, for no other reason than I can.

My questions are:

1) Can I put the Neo Fighter shocks on my son's Rising Fighter?

2) If not, what length shocks do I need for the Rising Fighter?

 

Many Thanks.

On my Mad Bull I have 95mm shocks (eyelet to eyelet) in the back and 70mm ones in the front. Since the Rising Fighter and Mad Bull share the same chassis, I would think these measurements should work for you.

The Rising Fighter uses a Grasshopper II chassis tub with a DT-01 gearbox.

Neo Fighter Buggy (DT-03) dampers should work fine regarding lengths. Available as Tamiya #50519 (front) and #50520 (rear) and they do come with all the necessary mounting hardware, several springs and damper oil. You might also be interested in having a look in these threads:
