G2R - P3 Rockers, Mounted in middle position, pre-load spacer ~4mm in front, 5mm in rear. Pink springs front, blue springs rear and 70wt oil front, 80wt rear.

When pushing on it with your hands, it feels a little on the stiff side, but thats how I like my suspension. Actually handles beautifully. Truck doesn't have much body roll and is very stable. 40mph felt like nothing. However, despite the stiffness, its really not affected by small bumps. I have lightly bashed it and was blazing over rough surfaces at ~30mph and it wasn't thrown around at all.

My E-Maxx that I had sold to make my G2R - Powerstrokes running "stock" springs with 30wt all around. Was a bit soft but I ran on a small track is it was ok.

T-Maxx - Powerstrokes with "stock" springs and 35wt all around. Handles awesome. I love it the way it is (the suspension, at least lol).

Revo 2.5R - Orange and Gold springs with stock oil, pistons, etc. P3 rockers, outermost hole (for bashing/jumping).

Jato 2.5R - Jato Blue springs rear, Jato Gold front. Stock everything else suspension wise. Still a bit soft for my liking, but it handles well.
