    The extra stroke is there to help landing to flat. The longer time the shock spends travelling from the initial contact point to normal ride height the more chance the damping has to do its thing and...

    Some r/c parts are so cheap (like front pan car springs), that it just easier to replace them with new parts when working on a "new to you" vehicle. As to why they were running 2 springs on each...

    The kit main turnbuckles are aluminium, titanium ones will be heavier. You'd only save weight on the shorter servo link that's steel, but as a complete set you'll still end up heavier overall.
