replacement springs B44
 
Looking to change my shock springs from the kit std to something softer for indoors(carpet) as whenever i am hitting the deck after certain jumps i am rolling over like a dog and the car looks very skittish and high/hard not low/soft in corners.

I am going to add some weight (running lipos and no trays etc so 100g in lead going in)

Searching the forum its looking like blue front and silver rear?

Does this sound reasonable?

Blue and silver are stiffer than kit dude , blue is 1 up from silver and silver is 1 up from green .

are you landing on the downslope (assuming there is one)?

also if you land and steer straight away this happens. Go slower over the jumps so you spend more time on the ground and also use less of the suspension landing from a greater height. The car needs to settle after landing.

I found ARB's help reducing the roll and won't effect your landing abilities.

I tend to run silver/silver indoors on carpet, but experiment and see what feels best for you. you may have to make a compromise somewhere if you have big jumps

The jump in question had a sharp left hand turn straight after it so it was tricky not to turn in asap. Slower would be a good idea i feel.

Cheers for help.
