Tamiya Lunchbox Shock Lengths? - Common Comments and Questions

I've had an influx of questions recently about the shocks that I used to upgrade my Tamiya Lunchbox. Everything is explained in the video but here are the links that I talked about:
Fastrax Shocks: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FASTRAX-1-1...
Tamiya Lunchbox U-Brackets: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tamiya-Gra...
5th Shock Mod Details: • Monster Project: Tamiy...
I hope you found this video and these links useful.

Thanks man. Short story: 75mm front and 85mm rear, but he had to be selective about white eyelets to use. Good informative video. 👍🏽

Nice job 💪💪💪

Cool video.... Where can I get these U-Brackets and shocks these days?

[@diligentboy7269]

Fire vid 🤣🔥🔥

[@RCProjects]

Thank you, glad you liked it.

[@chucklberry]

Do you think you could maybe do a video on cleaning your rc after a day on the trails and also a basic tool setup for someone starting out in rc

[@RCProjects]

Could do. Thanks for the suggestions.

How does it performs now with the new suspension?

[@johnnycoolness]

How many extra U brackets do you need? Doesn't it come with 4 so you need one more for 5th shock?

[@genuine74boomer]

Thanks for this great video - I bought these shocks and need the u-brackets you mention. I followed your eBay link but it's now dead. I've had a look myself on eBay for "u brackets" but couldn't find anything. Do you have any other sources? Thanks!

If you Google rc lunchbox shock absorber u bracket they should come up

[@pattyofurniture5674]

you should check out ampro engineering there's a lot of stuff for the lunch box

[@RCProjects]

Already subscribed to them. They do indeed have a lot of performance parts for the Lunchbox. If something breaks, I'll consider an upgrade from them.

If I buy 80mm shocks for all 4 corners would it be ok? I'm getting my first lunchbox tomorrow and would like to do the bearings and shocks while I'm putting it together. Thanks.

[@RCProjects]

Yeah, you should be OK. The motor may get a bit close to the shock spring, but if you have a solid link in place of the 5th shock, it should be fine.

[@MarkB-gg9ek]

Thanks. I'm not going to do the 5th shock. I'm going to get the transaxle spacer thing from Ampro. Not sure I want to go and start cutting up the plastic quite yet. I just got done putting my Lunchbox kit together and see a few things I want to upgrade already.

[@RCProjects]

Awesome, good luck. I hope you enjoy your Lunchbox as much as I have enjoyed mine.
