A truck I bought from Craigs List has the piggyback shocks on the front. I have not had a problem with them.

Some of their stuff is good, others not so much. From what I have heard.

Speaking from experience. I like the shocks.

FYI
It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice.

The bulkhead is garbage. Started pulling apart at the front of the a arm pins. Looks like white plastic inside Idk wth it is made of. Mistake I made new to the hobby three years ago. Lasted a month. Get an STRC or FLM.
Still have some of their castor blocks. They make a very nice hand tool set and some good crawler motors. The drive shafts they make for Traxxas do not last long either.

yea.., I was about to buy that bulk head in green but now I think I have changed my decision. But if more people agree with the shocks I might still go with the big bores that I have wanted for A LONGGG time. the reason I have wanted them for a long time is people were talking like everything integy was like crap.
Traxxas Slash 2wd and traxxas stampede are currently the only two I have.

Yeah the main response your gonna get when you ask about ANY Integy part is
"OMG SAY AWAY! THEY SUCK NEVER BUY FROM THEM blah, blah, blah."
Just be prepared for responses like that. Personally it annoys me. They've got to make some good parts.

Gabe that point has been made. Some things they make are decent. The bad is very bad; usually worse than the plastic part you are trying to upgrade from. Certain parts are made from a very poor quality of metalI did forget to mention the tranny case they make seems decent too I have seen a few in use.
One thing I find interesting is if you read their warranty it basically states that once a part is installed it is no longer warranted. Just something to think about there.
