Durango purples are the same as associated blue. 4.20. I tried Durango springs on my b44.1 but didn't like them. I might be talking crap but they feel too re-boundy? Like they're designed to suit the heavier car?

Best bet is Losi or Kyosho.

Jon,

I tried Durango Light Red on the rear and Durango Purple on the front and it just didnt feel right.

Losi Blacks are meant to be good on the rear,but i felt that the Silvers on the rear and Blue/Silvers on the front are brilliant,that is all i am going to use now

The wet setup is wrong on that site need to tweak it!
You need to lower the rear camber link about 2-3 holes
And run green front tyres

If you need some springs and losi cups I've got loads of new ones I've not used yet and won't be using. About 2-3 pairs of each

I found much the same. Swapped out for near enough the same rated BB spring as the original, but the car felt terrible to drive. I suppose I could of put more time into adjusting the setup, but I was up against it and the original spring setup worked so well at the time
