on the mini-t the shocks have that white spacerer thing thats supost to make friction and act like oil filed. instead of that spacer put in a soft little spring in there and it should get rid of some of the pogo. i dont have a mini-t yet so somone whos open for ideas could try this and see if this works.

good idea (real good) but does the mini-t shock have that extra room in the shock housing for another spring?

i dont know. i dont have a mini-t yet. i sure one of the front springs of an on-road car. the ones that only have that little spring were the spindle is. i have a bunce leying around cuz my dad use to race street oval and thats what he used.thanks for the complament. i was trying to figure out ways of making the suspension work beter without puting grease oranything in there like some other people have tryed.

the kind of springs that go around the kingpin for the front axel mount. i forgot how small they were but that just gives me more confidence in you're idea.

yes those kind. there are difrent kinds though.you would need to use the long and skiny kind. this one is long and you would have to cut it in half.
