scotty1986 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 hi all im in the process of building my 1/5 savage ive fitted some shocks what i think are irc v1s or lst,, ive redrilled my alloy towers as the irc top mounts wouldnt line up with existing holes and there fine,, the issue im having is with the lower shock mounts and the rpm arms,, obviously the irc lower shock mounts dont fit with the rpm arms,, so when fitting without them its bending the shocks inwards and pushing them against the lower arms,, so wondering the best way to rectify this?? was thinking some shock standoffs,, but not sure ,,, is anyone else running irc shocks with rpm arms?? if so what was your solution??

scotty1986 Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 be rude not to stick a couple of pics up of it though,, did irc do v1 shock for the savage as these are pretty much identical bar not having the 8mm shaft ,, alloy top caps,, alloy body ,, alloy spring perches etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 On the upper attachment, cant you move that cylindrical spacer to the other side of the shock cap? So it goes "Tower-Shock-Cylindrical Spacer-Brace-Nut"? Or will the shock cap foul the shock tower then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty1986 Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 that will just make the issue worse bud ,, the top is fine just bottom needs to sit further out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
