The 2mm thickness V2 shock pistons decrease damping and pack compared to the standard 2.5mm thickness kit pistons. Keeping the same 2-hole valving, the shorter thickness piston allows for faster fluid flow, and less pack (pack = increased rate of resistance) while the shock takes fast impacts from jumps and bumps. This results in a small shift, giving the car more traction and less pack, which racers can tune for an advantage in a wide range of conditions. Fits RC10B74.1, RC10B74.1D, RC10B6.2, RC10B6.2D, RC10T6.2, RC10SC6.2 (and older RC10B6 series models).\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSome rule-of-thumb cases for using the 2mm thickness vs. 2.5mm thickness pistons:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse optional 2mm thickness in cases where you want less pack, better bump handling, or slower responsiveness.
