Need new springs for my truggy -
01.25.2009, 12:20 PM
Hey guys, Lately I have been trouble with my truggy bottoming out, i cant drop the thing 6 inches without the chassis slapping. The truck weighs 10.5lbs RTR, which springs and oil would you guys reccomend for non-big bores?
Im running 50w oil now  Thanks R/c Monster Team Driver Jq the car, LST, Sportweks turmoil pro Unconventional Techniques, Superior Results |

Thicker oils, you might need to go over 70wt, another thing is to add preload.
I would start from thicker oils and then adjust rideheight with preload. |

Slightly off topic but where can you get preload spacers for 15mm shocks?

And you can allways use cable ties as preload spacers.
