That one I don't know on... but I suspect not, as the TA05v2 has the spur off to one side, not in the middle like the 417, so the pulley offset will be different.

Default Where do you find HPI silver Springs

Ok so what is the fix for not finding any HPI Silver springs for my TRF417 I've been reading about these springs and i can't find them any where. can I use the TRF spring kit or is it just HPI is a better spring.

Thanks

If you absoutely cant find any of the HPI's, give the tamiya blues a try all around. They do feel different to drive however, as the knock the edge off the initial reaction. Worth a try

Use these , they are linear like the HPI springs, and they dont need a different spring retainer. The other AE springs are good as well. For Jackson on my 416, I liked the AE golds up front, and the greens in the back, although I feel the Reflex 13.5s could be better.

There is some here

Does anybody try what I tried yesterday : I use the split arm mount front and rear, and for the rear, I use it as 1A, insteed of 1XA. Then, I have 2° rear toe insteed of the 3° stock, the car feels a lot better on my local track, wich is small, technical, medium grip alsphalt. I also put off the washer under the rear arm mount, the became easier to drive.
