Some like it, Some don't. Only way to know if it works for you is to try it out

Caster blocks, steering blocks, and a spare set of rear arm mounts.

I installed the Losi BB spring on my car last night with silver front and yellow rear (no binding issues). The car feels much more planted, also felt much smoother. I was able to go from a 15.9 to a 15.6. Car feels AWESOME.

I just ran mine for the first time today. I wish I could have gotton lap times to compare but they changed the layout

What I was able to notice was that it landed the bigger jumps a lot smoother. Almost completely eleminated chassis slap. And this one might just be all in my head, but I felt like I was able to push the car a little harder while staying consistant. Plus, springs not rubbing the shock bodies is pretty sweet too.

ok I know this has been discussed before but to wrap it up... when running BB springs (losi) you need dilver,orange front and yellow, white and maybe pink rears, and also rpm collars for the lower end with ghea adjusters on top?

For those of you running the shorty lipo, where do you find yourselves running it most? More towards the rear, middle or forward?

For springs I got silver and orange for the front and pink and yellow for the rear. However I don't think I will ever use the oranges up front. I may switch to yellow in the back when I run on med bite tracks.

I think you may not be using enough juice. I used 8-9v batteries together when doing mine years ago with simple green. Try that.
