What losi springs are bn used on the trucks. What are the spring rate chart of the springs. I want to make sure I use ethe equal rates of springs

does anybody know how to get negative gain in the rear, I have tried all link locations and only get positive gain. any help would be awesome thanks

If you want to use equal rates of springs. no real point to waste the money on the BB springs than

But see if this helps you

I have not used any Losi BB springs on the front of the 2wd truck yet, I know on the Buggy if you want to run Red front you need to shave .060" off the shock end eye to allow for the spring being larger. just use 2 .030" limiter washers to keep stock up travel. This is for the Buggy though.

Short as possible. Inside should be closest to center of chassis. That hole should be right about or near where the A-arm mounts. Then out by the wheel it will be the one closest to the chassis.

I just ordred one. I wanted to get did of the sloppy stock one.

I have a question. Why is the FT transmission seem lowder than a RS,RTR. I'm one of 2 guys running the FT kit and they just don't seem to be as quiet as the RS or RTR kits. Is it the ball diff versus the gear diff? I know it's a dumb question but its been bugging me.:lol:

I have noticed some trucks are louder than others. I have a FT and its not loud at all. Not sure why some are so loud. Maybe diff slipping too much? Gear mesh?

I don't think thats it. If I just turn my wheels forward by hand it's lowder than my buddies RS. I adjusted gear mesh and the change is minimal unless I jam it in to the spur.

Ive been running the HOT Racing servo saver for about 3wks now and love it.... Steering is consistent all the time. Got it from toadzrc..

KC Nitro.. maybe you could give me some input on this?

i also want to add i went from SS rebars (sucked bad)... TO soft JC barcodes(got better) to barcodes front and some SS gridirons rear and got a good bit better.. stuck the rear a little better.

Thanks for letting me know guys! I think I will go ahead and order one tonight or tomorrow. I can't wait to get it and install it in my SC10! :)

does anyone make a metal motor guard with plastic skids on the outside? Seems like that would be a great way to disperse some heat from the motor, but have a plastic skid plate to protect the metal.

About the springs- the change brought the 'spring frequency' up. The green/blue combination must have not kept those tires sticking to the clay. Does seem contrary to what 'text book' says. Most stuff says if you want more traction use a softer spring. Obviously there is a point where you can go to soft.

Funny combination on tires to me. We like a Bar Code style on short course at the indoor track here in KC. Most guys run Bar Codes all around. I usually go to Double Dee's in the front come main time. Why? Bar Codes give me to much steering. Double Dee's are more forgiving for me. Sometimes traction is so high I'll traction roll with Bar Codes on front.

I have never driven on a clay track. Sounds like you've experimented enough to know the right tire combination. Something else to factor in is the temperature of the track. I mostly race indoors in the winter months.

Thanks. It wasa actually my first time ever running . I just tried different tires every round. We were indoors .. and ut was a little cooler out. I think alot maybe had to do with the bar codes being orange softs.instead of the ss green or new soft blue . Most have good luck with wishbones ..pressure points ..gridirons and subcultures. I think im going to get ss bar codes and double dee ..and maybe holeshots for next time.

Yea green dot barcodes are the hot ticket in my area as well. Some will use double dee's if the hard pack has some dust on top.
