how come the kit requires to ditch the internal spring for that piece that looks like it would limit the shock from fully compressing. also, why does it come with different springs and why are they different front and rear(whats wrong with the stock springs) thanks guys

The internal springs are replaced with spacers to limit the articulation. The creeper has to much art. when it comes to competitions. To much will cause it to get twisted up and not climb over obsticals.
They replace the external springs to try and get rid of the torque twist and also helps to slow/limit the articulation. The grey springs they supply for the rear are pretty stiff. That will help keep both front tires planted during a climb.
I am in the middle of installing the stage 2 and the venom dig on my creeper. Just about got it done. Should be back on the rocks before the weekend.

i noticed this too and i thought it was going to really limit my climbing but so far it has helped tremendously. with the eternal springs i use to get about 90 degrees of articulation, now with the stage 2 kit i get about 50-60 + i don't any torque twist, i really like this kit now.
