It's not a proper rally, but it's fun, and there are some rough terrains/speeds most of the time.

Anyways, Thinking about cheap options, I might swap the TF018 front springs for TF015 front's (which is the same rating, but ~30mm longer) and go from there. The next step would be the TF23V, but that's 30mm longer and has a rating of 300-340lbs/inch, compared to the 220lbs/inch of the current (or TF015)'s rate. Don't know if that's not too much of a step - however it would be nice to get it right the first (well second time).

Also not sure if I can get away only with the longer (or longer & stiffer springs), or I also need new shocks, as the current ones still won't hold up for the "job", that is won't absorb the shock gradually, but let the spring compress until it can?


Extended bump stops?

Question
Out of interest (and granted, being completely lazy) how do I find out the colour code/ part no of my springs?
