Losi Mini T Springs

[SMUDGEBUG]

I know these fit inside the Axial shocks.... what I need to know is it the front or rears that are needed or are they the same length ? Also which ones have you used (i.e) Softest in front soft in rear etc etc TIA

Anybody ? The reason I ask is LHS's around these parts don't stock much so I have to order the right ones otherwise I have to wait another 3 days for shipping. So frustrating at times living in this country

Thanks for that, I managed to find a front one but it dos'nt fit the inside of the shock are the rears a smaller diameter ? Im so bloody confused now:-(

i tryed to put the rear Mini-t shocks and it was a lil to fat

Are these springs going above or below the spring piston? So do they try to expand the shock or compress it?

Thanks

ok I found the right springs........ the ones required are the chrome ones that come standard with the shocks, the hop up option ones are larger in diameter. the front and rears are different in length by about 10mm, I found that running (and I tried all options) that running the 2 longer ones on the left hand side it decreased the torque twist alot more.

The springs sit on top of the piston so it is forcing the shock out and yes it does work I tried it the other way round and well it sucked... I have had it out running today and it ran flawlessly , COG is lower but still has clearence. If you have the opportunity to perform this simple change then go for it.

Do you still run oil in the shock with the internal spring?

I'd hope so, or it would be Boing! Boing! Boing! time without any dampening.

Yes you still run oil in them, and thats where your preference comes into it .... either run light or heavey weight oil depends on how you want it to handle.
