    Probably not... You can just modify the stock posts.

    There aren't any that don't require modification, but the modification is incredibly simple.
    On the front, all you have to do is hack off the stock posts and install some aftermarket ones, like these.

    On the rear, remove the stock mounts and screw new ones into the shock tower, like this.

    Do a search on Tower for "posts" and you'll find all kinds, in many lengths, by many different manufacturers (Duratrax, Parma, Traxxas, HPI, etc).

    u can do it without buy anything if about 3/8 inch will work .

    if u remove the rear mount , u`ll see the support webbing on the back side , cut that out and redrill holes in that area , and the fronts , cut the post off the horizonal bar and cut the post off to the hieght u want them , drill a hole through the horizonal bar and into the bottom of the post and use some spare screws to mount them back on . but be warned , body trimming around the wheels may also be needed .
