I’ve had that problem also with the differential.

Hi guys,
I have a question regarding 9,5L springs. I recently bought really cheap 4x original yellow Lego hard springs (they have "LEGO" logo, etc.). I have also bought their softer version, which is much easier to get. The issue, maybe more like a thought, is that they are not really 9,5L, but 9. I measured both types, and a few of each type with calipers, and my results are around 72-72.5mm, which is really slightly more or exactly 9 studs. If they would really be 9,5 studs long, they should measure around 76mm. What are your experience guys on this topic, I would like to here input from people that do have one of those bigger springs.

What I am talking exactly about are:
95292c01 - hard yellow/black springs
95292c03 - soft dark gray springs

My most convenient to measure are as you say, 72.0 to 72.5mm, black ones in 8422, which rebrickable says "soft springs"

[Zerobricks]

Indeed, they are 9 studs long, not 9,5, also remmeber when you measure, that there is 1 stud offset.

@ZerobricksCan you please share the instructions for your trophy truck v2 MOC?

It is a very well designed MOC and has very nice building techniques

you can also give a digital model if you don't have the instructions at hand

Thank you for the praise! Unfortunately I don't have any step by step instructions, only a LDD file. Also I would recommend moving this conversation to my workshop topic.

@ZerobricksThanks so much for replying! it really is an honour.

Only the file is okay, at least i can see in detail how it is built 

[Zerobricks]

Thank you for the praise. I will upload the LDD file and send you the link once home.

Edit, the file is on my bricksafe already, but linking it is a bit hard on the phone. It's in the Mini AWD Trophy Truck folder

@ZerobricksThank you so much!

@Zerobricksthe truck i meant was the buwizz 2.0 trophy truck,the updated version

nevertheless, these models are great!

I have opened them in stud.io but some parts,such as buwizz bricks and motors and the planetary hub aren't showing even though i can see that there is a file there

how can I get them to show, and can i get the CAD files for the planetary hub?

That's available on the BuWizz website. I'm sorry, I don't know regarding other questions.

@Zerobrickshow do you open the files? do the buwizz bricks show?

and the trophy truck i mean is the black-and-red v2 , not the dakar racer or the mini AWD trophy truck

This one isn't available- believe me I've tried pushing for it :)

You can reverse engineer a chunk of the important mechanical parts from still parts in the videos. The front can be improved using audi hubs and cv joints. I made a model "borrowing" the rear axle concept/design, you can take a look at that on my rebrickable for free, maybe it can help you.
