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 light blue springs are slightly stiffer than the older light green springs, but softer than the dark blue springs.
