Think they are discontinued, including the milky blue set. Just buy the normal set them spray a few thin coats of white paint. Same with the roll bars, if you can't get the black ones just spray the normal ones black. That's what i've done, but i was lucky enough to get the milky blue spring set while it was available

Kewl thanks, I didn't necesiarly care about them beeing all white (e.g. the white set with the color coding on the end) ...I just literally need the white (xtra stiff) springs :-) ...I'll order up the other sets and yank the white springs out of them.

What color is the ultra hard spring? (one after white)

The housing for the diff bearings on my MSX are developing some play, is there a remedy to this or should I just replace the bearing holders?

From what I can see, the play is coming from where the bearing holder sits in the bulkhead. Not sure if its the bearing, the bearing housing, or the bulkhead thats causing the play.

Drive cups?? Do you mean the cups for the spool?? If so you can try speedtech / RCchamp / rainbowten .They should have them in stock...Or you could ask your LHS to order for you.
