Mini T springs diameter
 
What is the outside diameter of a Mini T Spring?
Has anyone used jeepndougs mini t cups & springs with losi shocks rather than big bores?

The way the spring threads into the cup I wonder if its a possibility.

The Mini T spring (~11.5mm ID) doesn't fit over the hex (~11mm flats, ~12.5mm points ODs) of the LCC shock plug. It does fit into the LCC spring cups. Guess you might be able to stretch the spring end over the cup hex. Otherwise it would rub the shock shaft some.

Thanks.
I have lots of losi shocks & parts. I think I will grab some springs & see if I can round the hex down enough.
I am running them dry so hand tight is plenty tight.

Had considered trying Mini T springs on some LCC shocks but quit after noting they didn't quite fit. May hafta take another look at it. :)

I have some old smooth od Losi shocks that are the same size as LCCs without the thds on the od of the tube.
Smooth od & smaller od is what I am going for.
