Shocks are undoubtedly one of the most important parts of chassis tuning, but there has never been an easy and accurate way of comparing, matching, adjusting and measuring them. The Team Losi SHOCK MATCHING TOOL is just such an item and easily the most useful tool a racer can have. Gil Losi, Jr. developed this tool while doing shock testing and has fine-tuned it over the years. You'll find this tool in the pit boxes of all the top team drivers like Bob Stormer and Evan Billingsley
No matter how much you know about pistons, dampening, limiting or any other shock tricks, racers have always guessed at these most critical facets of their shocks. This easy-to-use and understand tool can be used for all 1/10Th and 1/8th scale shocks and serves the primary funtions of checking and comparing o-ring condition, pressurization, condition of fluid, spring balance/rate, length and limiting. You can also see how a change will affect your shocks by changing one and comparing it to the unchanged one. After you know that your shocks are operating equally, you can install the springs and accurately adjust them with equal preload and then do a compression test to insure equal spring rate and function.
The Team Losi Shock Matching Tool is machined from anodized aluminum with laser etched measuring scale on the face. Both inch and metric scales are used. The ball bearing supported pointer will move with even the most sensitive differences between the shocks. You will graphically see any differences and be able to address them as necessary.
