This is a set of four soft progressive rate big bore truggy shock springs from Reckward Tuning. This is really just four rear springs in one package, specifically for truggies that require four rear springs. These springs get stiffer as ther are compressed. By having a progressive rate spring, your buggy will go through the rough stuff better, but you can still have a stiff suspension for landing those big jumps. These springs are also designed to be larger in the middle of the spring to ensure the springs do not rub on the shock bodies for improved performance. These are the blue "soft" rate springs.
These will work with trucks that use four rear big bore shocks, such as the HPI Hellfire and Mugen MBX5T. The Thunder Tiger ST-1 and Jammin X1-CRT trucks use shorter shocks on the front, so these will not work well unless you modify them to use four rear shocks.
