This is a set of optional Kyosho 84mm Big Bore Shock Springs, and are intended for use on the rear of the Kyosho MP9 1/8 scale buggy when equipped with the Medium Length Rear Shock Tower and Shocks. These springs can also be used on the ST-RR 1/8 truck as front shock springs. These springs are made with a smaller 1.4 diameter wire, compared to the original springs that used 1.6 wire. These springs also have a lower turn count than the older big bore shock springs, which allows the spring to be lighter than the previous shock springs. These green springs are slightly stiffer than the older purple springs, but not as stiff as the light green springs.
