Default Long Silver springs on B4.

All the guys seem to be running a longer silver spring on the front of the B4.
Does anyone know any more about it? Part number etc.

I guess truck front springs, possibly shortened slightly. Or if they have old stock, the 1st front truck springs were shorter than the current springs they have. Those are the ones I use on my car if I’m using AE shocks

They're the usual brown AE springs with the powder coating removed.

Losi pink rears on Cav's car though: http://events.redrc.net/wp-content/g...-cavb4-1-1.jpg

It's about a blue front bit it's the full length of the shock so they work better

If you look at photos of my car with grey springs they look like silvers

I was talking about the front springs being used by all the guys at the worlds.
Rich Lowe was good enough to tell us they were Kyosho.

Now here is another question, what rear springs was Cavalieri using?
They arent losi pinks because they dont fit the Associated spring collar.
Is he using Kyosho springs on the rear too?
