I have not figured it out yet, but I managed to make the truck push lol. Dont get me wrong, I like the way it feels, but my kids is setup the is pretty much exactly the same, but her truck steers 3x as much. I am thinking it is the rpm bumper she has. Maybe it is heavier and hangs further out on the truck? Giving her much more steering?

I have given up on trusting any "spring rates" from these manufacturers.

Losi's are the worst. Truck front greens 3.5 are softer than their silver 3.2 fronts!?!? the silver buggy rears 3.4 rating are stiffer than the green fronts, by quite a bit!?!? I dont know if it is a quality control issue or what

The new AE big bore springs are super soft. The BB green 2.0 rating is softer than the small bore green 1.9 rating.

I need to make a chart of my own with a drill press and a scale.

I can tell you that the Kyosho springs are probably stiffer than just about anything Associated makes

I run mine medium. I felt that a light diff was harder to drive. I dont want to run it tight and ruin it, so I went medium.

i havent ran sc in a few years,and if i was mistaken it had to be on the tighter side because the sc trucks tend to diff out alot easer?

anyone running the c-hubs?

i run med to high bite so cal tracks

You will get more roll with the SC truck so it will diff out. I run mine a bit tighter than my buggy.
I run c-hud on my SC and it helps rotate through corners on the higher bite tracks.

Yes. I use the aluminum STRC brace since I keep breaking the shaved brace. I also run one shim on top of that.
