cheers garry ;)

They are just there to identify the springs since they are silver - not sure what they actually are in that photo, maybe AE blues ? or even prototype Yokomo springs.

maybe like most pro's they strip oof the paint so that other drivers cant copy, and he has a colour coding sytem;)

To be honest, i doubt Craggy would have to go to the lengths of stripping his springs to hide his setup as he's too good :p but you never know..

Plus, I could never drive his B4 setup.... lol, and I know a lot of people are the same :P

Its to identify a stripped spring, or if he gets them all silver (test springs perhaps?) then its to identify a pair.

mystery
 

i would say its so he dont mix em up with the associated ones weve all done it :rolleyes:

u dnt strip them so people cant tell what they are....u do it to mke them a little softer!

old yok springs were hard to tell apart. doing this eliminates that
