RC Trix Springs?? 20%, 40%...need some help!
Hey I have a Savage and I wanted to get some new springs. I am lookin at the RC Trix ones but I am not sure to get the 20% (firmer than stock) or the 40%(firmer than stock). I really need a much firmer spring but I dont want the spring to make the car be like an old 60's Corvette (hella bouncy with absolutly no dampening effect at all)...

ok, i would suggest 20% then, its gonna be one stiff truck if you get 40%. its still gonna be stiff so maybe only get 4, and with every set of 2 shocks you only do one 20% and one stock, also i suggest you get some new oil http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXHPE4&P=7

Unless you have added significant weight to your truck you may even find the +20% springs to be too stiff. One of the most common mistakes MT owners make is to make their suspension way too stiff to keep it from ever bottoming out.
