The Kyosho MBW012S Setting Spring Set (Short) is a short spring kit built for Mini-Z MB-010 style shocks, supplied with multiple colour-coded rates to allow suspension fine-tuning without changing shock bodies.
These springs use the standard Mini-Z short profile and present a spectrum of stiffness by colour: Purple (super soft), Green (soft), Silver (medium), Gold (hard). The set often ships with the super soft option already fitted.
Fitting is direct: remove the shock cap and spring retainer, fit the selected short spring onto the shock shaft, and put the retainer and cap back. Short springs will alter static ride height and preload compared with full-length springs, so re-evaluate rebound and droop after swapping springs.
For tuning, choose softer colours to increase traction on low-grip tracks and firmer colours to reduce roll on faster sections. Make measured, single-step changes and test on identical surface conditions to observe handling differences.
MBW012S is an OEM Kyosho spare intended for Mini-Z suspension tuning and maintenance and should be used as a model-only component.
