Xray T1

[Warhammer]

???
Hi.

I have purchased a brand new Xray T1 [the origional]. My son runs an Xray T1raycer.

I notice the shocks on the front of the T1 are different length to those on the T1R. Is there a reasson for this?
Could I not just put new longer shock absorbers on the front of the T1 as there seems to be a place for them. Also will it be of any benefit or will the T1 be perfectly acceptable as is.
I am new to driving but do like a car which handles well in into and out of corners.

Can anone help???????

I had a similar problem, not realising I had bought the wrong springs for the T1, if you see the SPRINGS thread alot of people gave good advice to me.

Thanks for the info. However the springs are the same that came with the car [in the kit] . The actual shock absorbers are shorter. It probably is for some reason known to Xray when the car was produced. However I will check out SPRING threads as suggested.


Thanks.

You can either retro fit the longer shocks, or you can do as I did on the original T1 & fit the optional aluminium spring retainers which differ from the plastic part & allow usage of the Evo 2 type springs. I don't remember the part number , but I seem to recall the only cost me about £4 or £5.

is that the cup at the bottom of the spring? If not can you describe the part please.

On an xray T1 does anybody know if longer springs at the front would make much difference. I am seriously considering going for a C hub kit in any case but would like some info on this short springs that come with the xray t1
