Default Suspension issues

I took my buggy out tonight (losi eu) to get it ready for some track time on sunday and went to check the ride height on the rear and when i pressed the rear end down there was no rebound in the shocks. I took the shocks off and check each one for rebound and they did. I then changed the rear hinge pins but still got nothing. I also changed the oil in the rear shocks. anyone have any ideas on what my problem might be?

Something in the suspension is bent. I would check my arms and hinge pins. It could be the outer hinge pin is to tight.

Check the nuts on your rear carriers if they are too tight this will stop the rebound. This is more than likely the reason for no rebound. If you tighten the nut and screw too tight the a-arm will squeeze in not allowing for the rebound.
