Team Durango have published a shock build guide for the DNX408…“Shock absorbers are what keep your DNX408 glued to the track so getting them built ‘right’ is important to get the best handling car. We polled some of our experienced team drivers for information on how they build their shocks so we could write a little guide to cover some of the areas where doing things the correct way can make a difference. The first step to get your shock absorbers built correctly is to attach the piston to the shaft. Make sure there is no excess flashing on the piston to ensure smooth movement. If there is any excess flashing, carefully trim it off. The piston attaches to the shaft with a screw that will need to be threadlocked. Here you can either use the red Team Durango threadlock provided in your DNX408 kit VERY sparingly, or use some less aggressive blue threadlock from a third party. If you use too much red threadlock you might find it very hard to remove the small screw when you want to change pistons in the future. If this happens, you might have to soak the parts in acetone to break-down the threadlock.” Find out more here.
