Thanks for the picture, that explains much better. I have only been back in RC for a couple months after being out for about 20 years, quite a few things have changed other then th fact I still like my Associated car.

Right now I am running brown front and green rear springs. What would be the Kyosho comparison to these?

I went with K springs that were the closest to Ae brown & silver on my B4.1

rear K spring silver
Ft K spring dark yellow( looks just like like Losi orange)

Where can I pick up some K Springs? I would imagine you're just running the regular buggy shock springs, and not the big bores, correct?

Hey everyone,

What's up!

I'm looking into getting a Hitachi DB3DL 3.6-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Screwdriver. Does anyone in here know if the AE Factory Team 1/4" hex driver bits will work with it? Thanks.

Just check the specs of the Hitachi for 1/4" drive. if it has it, then your golden! By the way...the Makita is the only approved cordless driver for AE products.

Wild Cherry i have been looking for something like that for a long time, thanks.

Agreed. +1 on the chart

Lol just google associated spring chart and look under images

Does Associated still have a forum? If so, what's the link?

Rc10b4.com used to be a great site, but it kind of died off.

AE forums are down on their site. Have been for a while. But you'll get a quicker response on these forums anyways (but its kind of like google, a couple good answers and a ton of bad ones and b.s. )

Hey guys, I'm selling a NIB B4.1 FT kit here:

Thanks,

Ok guys, I need some help. I am running a B4.1 on an indoor hard packed track that's mostly clay. I started with Cav's indoor clay setup and ended up going to silver springs fr and rr. I even tried greens up front but I can't seem to get much on throttle steering. I have tried shortening the rear camber link by moving the ballstud to the outside hole on the bulkhead. I've played with ride heigth and wheelebase. Been through tons of tires and nothing gives. How do you get this thing to steer on power. I can't imagine everyone is having to bump the brakes on every turn like I'm having to do in order to get the car to turn. The car jumps and settles great and I can get right back into the throttle, it just pushes REALLY bad. What am I missing????
