You would think. But I'm being really nitpicking for a particular reason and those have 13 coils, the image of the spring from amain has only 11. I've been trying to figure out a black spring with 13 coils for a replica. They may well be right and the image is wrong, but trying to clarify.

No, I believe that the image is correct. I checked the black springs from my B4 and they had 11 coils.

An absolute thing of beauty….could you slow down on your builds, I’m starting to feel like a slacker over here (my RC10GX has a layer of dust on it that is making me feel bad).
I come for the RC10's but stay for the Yokomo's :P

Shocks on, Wheels will go on soon and then the electronics.
Need to figure out what paint scheme to choose. Want that mid nineties feel on it.

The SACS blended in very nicely with the black and carbon theme - such a tasty build!
