M03 + TA05 dampers

I am going to use the plastic oil dampers from TA05 on my M03.  To lower the M03, how many O-Ring should I use in each damper?  

Thanks!

at least 2 O-Ring
for lower ride height add 1 spacer
I just did that you going to do

I use 2 kinds of shock setup for my mini:
Super mini CVA, standard kit oil, 3 hole piston, 4 o-rings inside, yellow spring frt, red rear.
Some tracks this setup will cause the rear end to hop, or else cause a traction roll.

So then I switch to my other shock setup:
TRF fluorine dampers, standard kit oil, 3 hole piston, 1 o-ring inside, super short springs (old fluro colours) yellow frt and red rear. Then adjust ride height for the tires with the threaded TRF damper. Thread all the way up for 60D, then thread maybe 2-3mm down for smaller tires.

3 hole piston won't be too soft?  

Let me try try.  Thanks!

Finished building it la....

M03 + plastic oil dampers + rear toe-in + ball diff....

Somehow, the front shake a lot when it start up.  Once it's running, then it's ok.  Is it normal?  Or is it because my ball diff too tight?  

Also, there are quite a lot 虛位.....

Help!!!!

use 2 hole for the front.
don't use o-ring, use the alloy spacer set from tamiya or any brand, the o-ring will "going" together time after time~~~

I will try to cut the spring shorter before spending $$ to buy the TRF short springs.

Car lowered by cutting springs

yes...or u can try yellow short on front, red long on back.

Man, unlike KWS, we have to mail order almost everything other than the car kit.  

Will order the spring and shim..... but I will try out my shortened spring while waiting

btw, is there adjustable camber arm to buy?

Bros, my cut springs works surprisingly good on my M03   No "cup", willing to turn, chasing tourings

Now, I am looking for better tires for TCS.  It will be summer time in outdoor parking lot.  Radial or Slick tires?
