Default Custom Powerstoke Springs for my E-Maxx coming soon!

I'v decided to get, 15 sets of springs made for the Powerstroke shocks to suit Maxx trucks. They will be stronger then the stock yellow and red springs.
They should be ready by the end of next week. I'm getting them painted blue.
The top spring will be the same gauge as the stock yellow spring. And the bottom spring will be even bigger.

Here's a sneak peak

Interesting shock setup you have. I must admit, I do miss my E-Maxx.

That looks really good. I hate to get off topic but whats up with your shock towers? Every time i see a side shot of them it looks like they are 3 piece?

They're one peace. But they do have the edges machined, witch makes them look 3 peace.
