Quick one for you gurus out there....

I have made the switch to Avid Big bore springs on my 44.1

Questions 1: I cant get my ride ht any higher than 20 - 20.5 mm as the avid springs seem a little short, I have also tried Traxxas and Losi lower spring retainers BTW i am using Ghea Upper Collars.?

Question 2: has anyone found a need for a stiffer spring than the Purple Avid (which are .2lb) softer than the standard AE silver?

Cheers
