Softer Springs for Shocks

[Wagenmeister]

Hi guys

I have an SCX10 with Aluminum Double Suspension Adjustable Piggyback Shocks from Boom Racing, but the springs are so hard that there is no flex.

The question is, which springs can I use?

The springs have a 15mm inside diameter and 70 long. I fitted Traxxas Bigbore springs on there and they fit 100% but also too hard. Does Traxxas have soft springs for the Bigbores or any other make for that matter?

Thanks in advance

i'm currently running Losi Mini T front springs on big bores using these retainers
Mini T-Cups, Big Bore spring retainers
Losi Mini T front springs
They're perfect (and adjustable since the Mini T pack comes wiht 3 different sets of springs)

I can't comment on the boom racing shocks (never heard of them)

Thanks!

I have seen this setup, but I want the same length springs as currently on there.

Here are they:

I use the Traxxas big bore shocks
that are designed to fit the T-Maxx

The original Traxxas springs were too stiff.

So I used Losi 4" coil springs (soft/white)
They fit my Traxxas BB's perfectly

Have you looked at those ?

Thanks, no I have not looked at them, can you please give me a link to the Losi 4" shocks so that I can give the local shops a part number. They can find it other wise.

Thanks for the help

# 5147

I think they also sell a grey 2.75" rated at 1.6
so that would be lighter...
I don't know the part #
but my guess would be # 5146

@TacoCrawler

I found they grey ones locally, they were 5146 and are 0.2lb softer. Again thanks for the help!
