That's cool, I was just trying to help.

You might want to try a stiffer spring, like Purple, since you have the pre-load cranked way down. Like I said, a longer spring of the same weight does absolutely nothing different than the shorter spring of the same weight except stop you from cranking the pre-load so far down.

Pre-load is ONLY for adjusting ride-height, it does not make the springs/suspension stiffer, you need a stiffer spring for that.

The preload is not cranked "way down", 1/4 of the threads down at best as mentioned.

Don't want a stiffer spring, thats why I was happy to hear of the double orange at the lb it was.

Fully aware what the pre load is for.

Thanx Sweet cheeks


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.
