Hey there
I’m looking for MBS Matrix 2 Shock Blocks. To be precise the orange (medium) and yellow (soft) ones.
I want to experiment with different combinations.
If somebody in the EU (preferably Germany) has some old/unused ones laying around I would be happy to buy them from you.
Thanks
Pretty sure I have some spare orange ones, I’m interested in getting a few different ones as well
Yellow orange is dream setup. I can u turn on the road and still hit 40+ mph. Good luck in your search friend
You could also check these out and go with any of the la croix riptide bushings. I use them on all my matrix ii trucks and it makes it easier to have more options.
I think at this point its harder to find those adaptors than the MBS shock blocks
theyre discontinued afaik
Sounds like I need to scoop up all the old Matrix ii trucks laying around secondhand with them and corner the market
Should have orange. Must check it.
Are these something that many people need?
Whipped this up in CAD - waiting to hear back on pricing from a few cnc suppliers, but high strength mjf/uv polymer is very affordable (and plenty strong). Happy to put an order in either way, if people are seriously interested.
I know the Radium adapters use different preload screws than the stock Matrix 2 trucks. Would those use the stock MBS screws?
Yes - didn’t CAD those in because not sure of dimensions (I don’t have any).
If someone can measure those, I could get them priced
idk what I’m talking about but could there be benefits to making them out of something like tpu but still keeping it harder than the bushing to get a little more movement when it’s compressed the most?
Imo I think that would do more bad than good.
If the plate the bushing is supposed to be pressed against is movable you would get a feedback loop from the trucks as now the bushing is rebounding along with the mount for it.
Kind of like speed wobbles but more pronounced when you least expect it.
