Ok, so I know this is the revo forum, but I tried posting in the stadium truck forum and I never got a reply.

I have a Slayer 3.3 and I want to upgrade to stronger springs, but I'm not sure how I should go about it. It has the 2008 Revo MT shocks. I have P3 rockers and a Traxxas sway bar kit, but the truck sits too low. O put gas line on the shocks to limit the travel, but it just squats down to them and sits there.

Anyone have any ideas?

I know this has nothing to do with that, but I was also wondering about the 2-speed gearing. What's the best for what?
 
as far as the suspension,i would use heavier springs and heavier shock oil that might help with the squatting.
 
the shocks on the slayer have threaded collars. just crank them down and that will make it stand up higher. you can also get stiffer springs, but that will make the handling go down.
 
The pre-load didn't really help a lot. The springs on there are white pink and white blue
 
I tried buying revo springs once, but they ended up being for the revo platinum. Any suggestion as to what pressure? I don't want to end up buying too many sets of springs and never using them. I mostly just bash, I'm not really into racing
 
Thanks for all the help guys! I decided to get the green for the front and gold for the back
