Strange request, but urgent
 
Ok, I need the spring dimensions for the following cars (I.e the height, and diameter of the front and rear springs for the following):

> Losi XX4 WE
> Bj4 WE
> Losi XXX CR
> TTech Predator X10

Just a little something I have planned, invloving socks and shocks :D;)

Remember some people cut the springs etc Losi silver fronts.

For the Losi Spring lengths have a look at their spring chart here

Lengths depend on what tension you want, it varies significantly on AE springs for example, less so on Losi ones.

If you are going to make shock socks, then make the socks plenty long enough and the driver will cut down if required.

I have some great pink ones, I might put them on soon for a laugh. :D

I agree, would rather have the sock cover the whole of the shock than just the springs.

Had some on my XB8 a while back and they were plenty long enough to cut to length.

One size fits all, cut to length. Should keep manufacturing costs down ;)

Chrislong 14-02-2007 09:39 AM

Nah, not quite the whole shock. We just tuck them into the spring and so the shock body and shaft is well covered. Anymore than that and it would drag on the shock movement, the socks I have are just to keep the shaft clean.

BenG 15-02-2007 12:57 PM

My vision tells me it will be around £6 for 4, i.e. rear and forward.

I will work on lowering sed price though;)

Chrislong 16-02-2007 10:32 PM

Wow, for £6! I mean, how can you do it for that, must be some sweat shop or something.

PaulRotheram 16-02-2007 10:33 PM

Chrislong 16-02-2007 10:34 PM

PaulRotheram 16-02-2007 10:36 PM

Chrislong 16-02-2007 10:37 PM

BenG 16-02-2007 10:38 PM
