No such thing as too much torque, but that is a relatively slow servo. I'd look for something in the .10 or faster range.

anything over 120oz of torque is fine.

The 1258 will work fine. Just grind a few mm off the end of the bellcrank.

For some reason, the servo mounting holes on the chassis plate are super variable.

I tried a 1258 in my car, and if I were to grind a few mm of as you suggest, I'd be compromising the threads in the ball end on the bellcrank.

My friends' B44.1 has nearly 2mm clearance with the same set up! Way to go, AE!

I like the losi pinions they run quiet and last forever. There hard coated steel. I like the steel so I can tighten them down and not worry as much about stripping one or seizing the threads. (I use blue lock tight).
Aluminum or titanium are probably more efficient and less stress on the motor though.

If it matters the Losi pinions run quieter. IMO.

Ha I asked the same question not too long ago and didn't get many answers. SO...I went on Kyosho's site and looked up Tebo's ZX-5 shock setup for the Reedy 2011 at West Coast RC (my local track). I know it's not the same buggy but the specs on the Kyosho are pretty similar in dimensions and weight Kyosho being a touch lighter. Haven't run it yet though but at least I have a ballpark to start with.


Front: 35wt/ yellow springs

Rear: 30wt/ red springs
