Hey guys, does anyone know where i can pick up a stringer S-Spring for my rear end so ill have more force on the clutches so my driver tire will grab harder. In case no one has a clue what im talking about.. lol im talking about the spring that goes in the rear end carrier in between the spider gears. Thanks Guys

Yes but I'm not sure if you can do both. If you can though.... You'd probably have one hell of a time getting the stiffer spring in there.

I am with Daggs. I would not want to do both. The stock spring is hard enough. repacking is probably the easier way to go. Tried and true too.
