UPDATE

Well, I've been messing around some more with some brackets and positioning the shocks more linear, and more horizontal. Hard to feel any difference. The fact is, these buggies need softer springs. The blaster front shocks are definitely better than the buggy's rear shocks though.

So, for a laugh, I put the stock fronts on the rear, and the stock rears on the front. Wouldn't you know it... jackpot. The rear felt like it finally had a suspension... a bit "springy" which I think is just the quality of the shock. Who knows what type of oil is in it.

The front was stiff, but not as bad as would have thought. So, whatever spring rate the fronts are is what this buggy needs in the back.
