Suspension springs for the 1/16 scale Cromwell

[tomas.fudor]

Informations about tension springs, used for the Cromwell suspensions.

In the assembly guide (version 1.0.6_EN) , the diameter of the spring is 7.5-8 mm.
Over time, i found that the 7mm outer diameter is ideal.

Springs with the 8mm diameter can touch the side panels, they can be scratched, they can make sounds and they can be even jammed, i think.
Outer diameter of 7mm is not very typical (6 or 8mm is regular size), but still available.

Tension spring:
wire diameter: 0,8mm
outer diameter: 7mm
lenght: 30-32mm

Personally, i use this springs from the local source.They are a little bit longer (32mm) but its ok.
