Sounds to me like you have a lack of roll resistance at the rear.

Try going up a spring (from green to silver, or silver to grey). Or try a stiffer bar, or try a more angled upper link. Or many of the other solutions to increase roll stiffness.

Bear in mind that the Losi rear springs are somewhat stiffer than the AE ones - pink Losi is roughly grey AE. That is the difference that people are noticing in the handling IMHO, not the pistons or the shock design.

If you find the Losi's easier to build then go for the change. Personally I have no problem with the AEs, but it's true that there is a technique to building them that isn't made clear in the manual. They need a squeak of air in them to work correctly.
