After reading all this though, maybe I should use that softer spring? are any of you who are having problems runnning the soft replacement spring?

I don't think the softer saver springs helps with servo saver parts. It only protects the servo. The saver parts break when the steering reachs max turn, but is still under heavy load (crash while turning). At this point the spring won't even be activated instead the saver will break. The negative to running the softer spring is bump steer problems. The soft spring is so soft that the servo can't hold the wheels in the arc you choose when the ground is bumpy.
