I ordered new shocks that should work out better. Subscribe and watch!

[@MTrefry2]

I just got my mn82, first thing i got were some cheap oil trx4m shocks. Fit fairly well, and are the same 53mm as the stock shocks. I removed the rear shocks and swapped the rear diff to under the leaf springs. Huge flex now in comparison.

[@BillsWorkbench]

Mine will be here for the weekend I will see how they fit and report back.

Can you show modyfication?

[@BillsWorkbench]

@@modelbaumok9210 I plan on creating a step-by-step guide to show anyone how to upgrade their crawler. I have the shocks I want to use; I just need to finish the video. The shocks I am trying are from Injora, and hopefully, they will fit without too much fuss.

[@redewenur1984]

What weight oil would you recommend to fill with?

[@BillsWorkbench]

@@redewenur1984 I use 20wt oil.

On the receiver module there is 6 pin plug is empty do you know whats that for ?

[@BillsWorkbench]

This is a guess, but LED lights. I looked at the receiver in my MN99S, and it looked to be the same connection to the main chip. I would need to do some testing with the meter to be sure. Take this as advice from the internet, and it may be incorrect.

[@BillsWorkbench]

I checked the 6 pin connector and they are indeed lights, but they all are on at 2.7 volts. No change with turn, reverse, break etc.

@@BillsWorkbench Thank you !! Appreciate your help brother 👍

​@@BillsWorkbenchon aliexpres can you buy ready to use rc car led light, can you take a look which would fit either the rear or as a fog light for the front?

[@evoemperor3776]

Are those shocks meant for mn78 and mn82? I can't find reviews of those oil shocks and the one your using is similar can you give me link?

[@BillsWorkbench]

I have not found the perfect shots yet. But I do have the measurements, they are at the end of the video. If you find some please let us know.

[@tracydavis96]

Too much thought..just order shocks..

[@BillsWorkbench]

I tend to overthink and over share. I did get some new Injorna shocks. Just need to get them installed, and the video edited. Stay tuned.
