I used Hotbodies thin PN 72044. It gives you a few more options for shimming at the hex that way. IIRC a 1mm shim puts you at stock hex width.
It is close at the C-hub but I did not have to grind once shimmed under the hex pin.
I spent last practice abusing them with a boosted 5.5 on carpet and no issues.

I went to setup my 6.1 today for the first time and I am having trouble getting 5mm ride height in the front. With the reflex racing springs I can only get 5.8mm. I switched back to the ASC springs and can get 4.7 (which gives me very little room for adjusting for tweak). Is this normal?
Things I have checked so far:
- Backed the droop screws all the way out
- Shock upper collar all the way up
- Length of the shock is as short as I can make it
- Spring collar all the way down
Running the stock kit settings.

Make sure you have the correct spring retainers.

Hello, when building my 6.1 last week I noticed 2 issues, and was curious too see if anyone else has seen this. 1. The shock collars have not resistance at all. Yes I put the o-ring in. 2. The front belt does not mesh well with the spool or diff in front. Doesn't matter how tight or loose I set the belt. You can spin the tires on a stand slowly and watch the belt skip on the spool. Thanks
