Fg Marder rear suspension sag!

[Hendo7249]

hi all,
my marder is suffering from sag on the rear end with very little rebound, so my plan was to fit stiffer springs, just been looking at rear springs in various coulours, can anyone please tell me what stiffness the differant colours are?

You'll be pushed to find geuine FG springs in different stiffnesses for the Marder. Try changing your oil or adding another 2 x 1.5mm holes in the piston.


At rest (push the car down on the bench and let it come up on it's own) your rear wishbones should be level - adjust this by adding or removing the spacer clips.

Thanks mike, what about the after market springs, I was looking at some on hobbythek site?

Just make sure they're the right dia and length, the thickness and tightness of the wind affects how hard or soft the spring is, not the colour.
