TRAXXAS X-Maxx 2.6mm Race Coil Springs - TXMSP26 by GPM  [TXMSP26]

X-Maxx 2.6mm Upgrade Springs

These 2.6mm coil springs are an aftermarket replacement set for the TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx platform and come supplied as a single set. They are intended to be a direct-fit option for the X-Maxx shocks and are compatible with both stock dampers and GPM optional shock units.

The thicker 2.6mm wire delivers a higher spring rate than standard light coils, helping to control body roll and improve rebound consistency during high-load landings and fast cornering. Drivers looking for a firmer chassis response for track or aggressive terrain will find these springs suitable.

Fitment is simple: remove the shock cap and spring retainer, take off the existing spring, then fit the 2.6mm spring making sure orientation and preload are correct. Check that the spring seats properly on the perch and verify travel to avoid coil bind. Make small preload changes and test between runs.

Tuning guidance: match these springs with the right oil weight and piston choice to offset the increased spring rate; heavier oil or smaller piston holes can slow rebound. Always bench-test assembled shocks and perform a short on-track evaluation after any tuning change.
