I just bought them today and it is difficult to install without a manual/instruction... But I have finally obtained some photos, so I post them here just in case some of you may need them.

Hope these photos can help...

One more thing to help you save time:
4 hex screws are included, 2 long and 2 short

2 short ones go to the silver ball thing.

2 longer ones go into the differential case of your H8. ;)

I was going to get them when I was at the hobby store today, but didn't know how it would be of aid to the handling.

Would you mind giving us a brief review on them? What suspension settings are you using? :p

Cheers~

Rear suspension holder = Plate C
Shocks = Kyosho
Shocks Spring = 3Racing Blue (Medium I think)
Hex screwed the rear wheel arms to around 10 degree below horizontal

Still busy with those 4 hex screws at this moment... seems the longer ones should go into the differential case instead...

Damn!!! Need the instruction diagram so bad!!! :mad:

Using GOLD bar (hard)

Found out about one bad thing...
My rear differential case cover is broken! Although it can still hold the gold bar in place, I don't like the feeling about it. Need replacement. ARGH!!!

After installation, I don't think they are really necessary. Looks good with them on my H8, but performance wise, you can acheive the same result by using stronger spring on the shocks.

So... my suggestion is, no need to buy them unless you are so bored with your H8 and wanted to add some spice to it. ;)

A naughty metaphor just crossed my mind... using 2 condoms at the same time when you having a good time with your girl friend. HAHAHA
