The Kimbrough #113 servo saver for Airtronics and KO has 23 splines. The #114 for Futaba has 25 splines and the #131 for Hitec has 24. I couldn't find a reference to which one fits the JR so you may have to count the splines.

23T for JR, KO, and Airtronics. 24T for Hitec and 25T for Futaba.

Has anyone tried the CRC C60 Evo3 LMP body? Looks like it has alot of overall downforce.

From softest to hardest: orange, blue, white, red, green, purple.
Same as Speedmerchant, and orange is NLA.

This is to the best of my recollection, it doesn't seem to be published anywhere anymore.

thank you! what about the center springs?

Here's what I have in my notebook on springs. It's kinda been collected over time from a few different places. Hopefully, this can help others out, too...

Center spring: Preload on the center spring is used only for setting ride height. if you want the car stiffer or softer, you need to change the spring. A stiffer center spring usually makes the car steer more in the middle and exit of the corner (accelerating). The only place this really doesn't hold true is if the track is very bumpy. Because the car is too stiff, it is chattering in the bumps and losing traction.

More mid/exit steering: stiffer spring
Less mid/exit steering: lighter spring

Olive Green: 6 lbs
Silver VCS: 8 lbs
Blue: 10 lbs
Gold: 12 lbs
Red: 14 lbs
Copper: 16 lbs
CRC Stiff Silver
CRC Super Stiff Silver



Side spings: Side springs control how reactive the car is around center. Stiffer springs equal more initial turn in, less chassis roll and more steering response (although most noticeable around apex).

More entrance steering: stiffer side spring
Less entrance steering: lighter side spring

Blue: soft
White: medium
Red: firm
Green: x-firm
Purple: xx-firm

What about the springs on top of the discs that slide around on the rear pod top plate? Are those adjustable? What do I adjust for side2side movement?
