    Spring question

    in Gear info

    What would be a good starting point for front and rear springs for a light-weight rwd buggy? I see some of the set-up sheets you have on this forum, although, I'm having a hard time finding the lb. rating for those springs. Thanks a bunch.

    We carry some of the RP yokomo springs. Yes id does stand for that. Most of us run black on the back and either orange or purple on the front

    You guys must carry the Yokomo Racing Performers springs in house? Looking at the stetp sheets on this forum I see the spring labeled as RP orange or RP black, etc. Does the RP stand for Racing Performers?

    I'm using some Prospec shocks on a rwd buggy which is coming in at about 1500 grams. I have a set of springs to use with the following rates:


    Front

    Super Soft = 3.2 lb. Blue

    Soft = 3.4 lb. Green

    Medium = 3.6 lb. Yellow

    Hard = 3.8 lb. Red

    Super Hard = 4.0 Lb. Purple


    Rear -----------

    Super Soft = 2.0 lb. Blue

    Soft = 2.2 lb. Green

    Medium = 2.4 lb. Yellow

    Hard = 2.6 lb. Red

    Super Hard = 2.8 Lb. Purple

    What brand? That's gonna be a tough one, as there is so much traction with carpet. Stiffer the better
