| Trx4m springs
I want to change the spring on my TRX4M defender and can't work out which ones are the stronger type, can anyone enlighten me please, I want to do this to try and eliminate the torque twist that the truck suffers from, I also fitted the bearing upgrade kit in the axles and when I put the wheels back on I backed out the nut by a 1/4 turn

This is the traxxas chart for trx4m springs. Soft on the left hard on the right. Different color dots are for color coded springs. Sent from my LG-V521 using Tapatalk Last edited by Ynad; 06-01-2023 at 03:37 AM. |

thanks for the information, I will be getting a pair of the 0.155 rate springs for the truck and use them in the rear right side and the front left side to try and eliminate the torque twist.

I had the same problem with my Axial AX 24 after I added larger tires and brass knuckles. I changed the shocks and springs , with the stiffer spring on the right rear . I also installed lower gears to push the weight I added and not the body . I only get the left front tire wanting to lift twist on inclines at just around 55 degrees. It’s nice you can order the springs . |

I've got the 0.155 rate springs on backorder from model sport in the UK, so hopefully they will eliminate the torque twist | |

the .155 rate springs arrive this morning and the truck does not torque twist as much as it used to do, I will have to adjust the spring tension a bit more
