In both situations, you might have to cut a little of the ball cup that hold the retainer to get it a little lower.

How come the first half of the post is capitalized correctly, but the lower half has only one capital? Where'd you copy the first half from? LOL
You missed a spring too... Sliver is in-between Yellow and Blue.
What I was more wondering, and should of asked this in the first place, is why use the long springs with no adjustability, when you could run the short springs and get the same ride height WITH adjustability? I mean, ONE specific ride height won't work the best, EVERYwhere you go. Why limit one of the few adjustable components of the car?
Basically, are Tamiya's short White springs the same rate as Tamiya's long White springs? Just different length's...? I think that's the case... Not 100% sure though.
