Default Internal Spring Shocks

Is anyone using shocks designed with internal springs? would the internal spring design hold up the weight of the CC01 well?

The ones I'm interested in:

if they offer different springs for tuning, sure. it depends on your specific truck. my cc weighed a ton.

The only thing that added extra weight was the junfac skid plate and 4 link kit I installed last night, would that affect it much?

I'm using 70mm ARBs with red spring rate in the rear with junfac links and tamiya droop kit for extra travel. The stock spring rate for the 80mm is comparable so it should be good but YMMV. I'd pick up the spring set just in case.
