RC Traxxas shock endcap Upgrade

thingiverse

When I'd go out and bash my Traxxas Slash 4X4, I always seemed to hit a rock or something and knock off a shock endcap or break one completely. Determined to overcome this problem, I designed a stronger and better endcap for RC enthusiasts like myself. Fortunately, since implementing the new design, I haven't had any issues yet, which suggests that my efforts were successful. Rather than heading out to purchase an expensive aftermarket solution, why not consider 3D printing instead? The option is certainly appealing, especially considering the wide range of applications this part can be used for. This design has proven effective on a variety of RC brands and types, including but not limited to Traxxas standard shocks and also Kyosho and associated shock absorbers. I envision it being beneficial to enthusiasts everywhere who are eager to strengthen their setups. I designed these instructions in the Creo software by utilizing my own stock Traxxas shock endcap as a basis of reference, allowing me to craft something similar that is easy to fit and install into place, just like its original counterpart.
