Also, does anyone know the part number for these?

Thanks for the help

Hi Dan,

I just found the HB springs were a little to soft for the tracks we have over here and also a little long. They tend to get 'coil bound' on full travel which effectively negates the spring and loses you grip, usually on the rear.
The springs I have on my car are HB prototypes which are similar to the Losi ones.

It also made it easier for me to understand the car as I ran XX4 and XXX4 for around 10 years. It's easier to start with something you know. You need to use the short spring perch with the losi springs. The Taller spring perch is for if you use AE springs.
