Stiffer springs for big bores?

[candre23]

I got my aluminum big bores used. I don't know if the springs are just well worn in or the weight of the DB17 conversion kit is just too much for them, but they seem pretty saggy. It seems like the truck will bottom out too easily even with two spacers on each shock. Are there longer / stiffer springs that will work? I saw another thread mentioning that the hellfire spring set will fit - are the stiff springs from this kit any stiffer than the big bore stock ones? Is it possible to get just the stiff ones? I'd rather not spend $70 for a kit mostly full of springs I don't need.

the springs for the hellfire are the springs for the big bores, i use the yellow ones myself.

these ones http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLZV7&P=7 and four spacers in the back, want to get the red ones for the rear and 50wt shock oil works great for me.

Yes you can get just the stiff ones and the BB's come with pink. I use yellow in the rear.
