Klinik RC Schumacher shock pistons

Coming from Klinik RC and made for Schumacher’s current Cougar 2WD and Cat 4WD buggies are precision-machined shock pistons. Designed to fit and perform they fit the shock bodies extremely well and have precise dimensions to ensure 100 percent consistency and accuracy. The pistons are precision-machined from genuine Dupont Teflon and they have the hole sizes machined into the top for easy identification. Attached much more secure than the stock pistons, the stock countersunk screw fits the top perfectly, doing away with loose or lost screws in the middle of a run. The pistons come in sets of two and in the most popular 2-hole and 3-hole setups.
