I also have some Losi springs, which seem to fit. Anyone uses those ?
It's wide enough and a lot longer that I didn't think the stock body fit at all. I use the older Losi XXXT RTR body. It is a lot narrower than most 1/10 truck bodies, and fits the RCM chassi ver well. If you want to use the truggy wing with a 1/10 body then I cut the body off just behind the rear wheel wells.

The grey springs are the softest and stock. What springs you need will depend a lot on how you do your conversion. With bigger batts or a heavy L motor you may need white front and blue rear. With a lighter setup then the blue front & grey rear works good. Either way you will need to go with the stiffer pistons (I liked smaller 2 hole) and some stiffer oil.

I have a bunch of Losi springs too and they were a good bit softer than even the grey crt.5 spring.
