Default dual rate springs for slash?

hey guys i was wondering if anyone knew if there was an aftermarket dual rate spring set that would work on the slash. im gonna need part numbers for both the front and the rear.

at the moment i have an inch of pre load spacers (im using an 8 cell 5000mah battery) in the rear shocks so basicly im not getting any tension on the first stage of the spring which makes me loose traction on the little bumps. (but i have to say it jumps like a champ)

the front is right on but it would be nice to have the option to change them out for higher tension springs when i get more use to driving it

*ive tried slashracer already and just got responses for the stock springs

I don't think I have seen any other than the OE ones... I'd love some for AX10 shocks.

Traxxas makes progressive springs for the T-maxx, I'm fairly sure they should work on the Slash.

Arent these just Maxx shocks? If so, here is a set of Integy progressive springs for Maxx shocks:

You might want to check the measurements on them first...

the stosk traxxas slash springs are dual rate progressive springs. I run the integy ms9r piggyback shocks with the stock springs.
