i have alot of sprung wheelsets that still need to be assembled i am currently using the tip of my #2 exacto knife to persway the springs in. does anyone know of an easier way to put them together that doesnt involve using more then the 4 springs it needs. cause i keep messing them up or loosing them

The easiest way is to find a good looking girl and ask her to bring them in a hobby shop to ask them how. Most will be happy to do them all for her.

i like that idea i even know a few good looking girls. but my hobbyshop would want to charge to do that cause i o to hobbytown
better yet where can i get just the springs
i know Kydee used to make a nice little tool, almost like tweezers to set springs in
If it's those walthers bettendorf trucks, just chuck'em out, terrible IMO
Kadee sells a spring pick, that's what you need.
the trucks i have are made of plastic they are a light brown almost tan in color i have no idea what brand they are they are another great purchase on ebay. they came in a much larger lot
ok i will have to check out kadee and see what they got
