Overview
The Team Associated 13mm Front Shock Springs in Green represent a significant addition to the 13mm shock spring lineup, offering RC enthusiasts across the UK a soft-rate option that dramatically expands your tuning capabilities. Whether you're a serious racer fine-tuning your RC10B7, RC10B84, or RC10 Factory Team for competition, or a dedicated hobbyist looking to optimise your car's handling across varying track conditions, these springs deliver the adjustability you need. Team Associated has engineered these springs specifically to broaden the range of suspension settings available to drivers, allowing you to achieve the perfect balance between comfort and responsiveness on your chosen racing surface.
These 13mm front shock springs are part of Team Associated's latest soft spring additions to their comprehensive shock spring range. By introducing a Green colour option for the front suspension, Team Associated has created an easy-to-identify, colour-coded system that helps you quickly select the right spring rate for your current setup. The springs allow for greater fine-tuning across various conditions, meaning whether you're racing on a smooth tarmac surface, a dusty outdoor track, carpet indoors, or any surface in between, you'll have the suspension adjustability to match. This is particularly valuable for RC car UK drivers who experience the diverse range of track conditions available throughout the country.
With a spring rate of 3.1 lb/in and a length of L44, these springs offer a notably softer feel compared to higher-rate options in the 13mm range, making them ideal for situations where you need more suspension compliance and smoother weight transfer. The inclusion of these springs in your spares collection ensures you're never limited by your suspension options, and you can confidently experiment with different setups to discover what works best for your driving style and the particular conditions you're facing.
Key Features
- Soft-Rate Spring Option — At 3.1 lb/in, these springs provide a softer suspension rate than harder options, which means your RC car will absorb bumps more effectively and maintain better traction on uneven surfaces, making them particularly valuable for rough or inconsistent track conditions.
- Colour-Coded Green Design — The distinctive green colour makes these springs instantly recognisable in your spares box and during setup changes, eliminating confusion and allowing you to quickly identify the correct spring rate without needing to check part numbers.
- Enhanced Adjustability Range — By expanding the available spring rate options in the 13mm front shock spring lineup, these springs give you more granular control over your car's handling characteristics, allowing you to fine-tune suspension stiffness in smaller increments for optimal performance.
- Fine-Tuning for Variable Conditions — These springs allow you to adapt your suspension setup to different track surfaces, weather conditions, and driving styles, which means a single car can be quickly reconfigured to excel in multiple racing environments without requiring major suspension overhauls.
- Standard 13mm Shock Compatibility — These springs are designed to work seamlessly with the 13mm shock absorbers found on a wide range of Team Associated vehicles, ensuring straightforward installation without requiring additional modifications or adapters.
- Precise Engineering — With specific measurements including a length of L44, a spring constant of 3.1 lb/in, a thread count of 7.5T, and a wire diameter of 1.2D, these springs are manufactured to exacting Team Associated standards for consistent, reliable performance.
Technical Performance
These 13mm Front Shock Springs represent precision engineering at its finest, manufactured by Team Associated with the same attention to detail that defines all their products. The 3.1 lb/in spring rate strikes an excellent balance, providing enough compliance to absorb impacts and maintain traction whilst remaining stiff enough to support your car's weight during aggressive cornering and acceleration. The L44 length specification ensures compatibility with the standard 13mm shock bodies used across Team Associated's range, while the 7.5T thread count and 1.2D wire diameter have been optimised to provide the ideal combination of flexibility and durability. Unlike heavier spring rates that can cause harsh, unforgiving suspension action and reduce traction on bumpy surfaces, these softer springs allow your car to settle more quickly after impacts, reducing the energy losses that come from excessive oscillation. The engineering philosophy behind these springs reflects Team Associated's commitment to giving drivers the tools they need to achieve competitive performance, with the soft rate particularly valuable for drivers seeking improved mid-corner control and better weight transfer characteristics. Whether you're running these springs on tarmac, carpet, or outdoor dirt surfaces, the consistent spring rate ensures predictable behaviour across different track conditions, allowing you to develop consistent driving lines and braking points.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC cars are these 13mm front shock springs compatible with? — These springs are compatible with a comprehensive range of Team Associated vehicles including the RC10B7, RC10B7D, RC10B84D, RC10B84, RC10B84 Classic, RC10B84D Classic, RC10B7.1D, RC10B7.1, RC10 Factory Team, and additionally with models 90041, 90042, 90046, 90047, 90050, 90051, 90055, 90056, and 6049, making them suitable for most current and recent Team Associated off-road buggies.
- What does the 3.1 lb/in spring rate mean for my RC car's handling? — The 3.1 lb/in rating indicates this is a soft-rate spring, meaning it requires relatively little force to compress compared to stiffer options, resulting in a more compliant suspension that absorbs bumps better, maintains traction on uneven surfaces, and provides smoother weight transfer during acceleration and cornering, though it may feel less responsive during rapid direction changes compared to harder springs.
- How do these soft springs differ from harder spring rates available? — The 3.1 lb/in soft-rate springs compress more easily than higher-rate options, making them ideal for rough or bumpy tracks where you need maximum traction and suspension compliance, whereas harder springs provide quicker response and sharper handling but can lose traction on uneven surfaces and feel harsher under bumpy conditions.
- Why would I choose these green springs over other options in the 13mm range? — You should select these green soft-rate springs when you're racing on tracks with significant surface irregularities, want improved traction on bumpy sections, prefer a more forgiving suspension feel, or need to balance between extreme softness and mid-range stiffness, making them the perfect middle ground for many drivers and conditions.
- Are these springs suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely; the soft-rate characteristic of these springs actually makes them excellent for newer drivers as they provide more forgiving suspension action that maintains traction more easily, reduces the impact of imprecise throttle control, and generally feels more stable and predictable through corners, making them an ideal starting point before experimenting with harder rates.
- What is the L44 length specification? — The L44 designation refers to the compressed length of the spring, ensuring correct fitment with standard 13mm shock bodies used across the Team Associated range; this specific length has been engineered to provide the correct amount of pre-load and compression travel for optimal suspension performance.
