Broke my secondary spring. What setting? 3-3?

[Q. Arrius]

I have the TP helix on my SW, with their orange spring. A buddy was riding it for a week, and then a crazy howl and squeal developed.

Broke it open in the trailer and found the typical spring break. Saved the trip by bringing the Yami stock spring......and set it to 3-3.

Any thoughts on the correct setting / most ideal setting for using a stock spring on a TP helix.? I believe I bought the ramps for low end acceleration....but I forget the exact nomenclature/ ramp slope.

I absolutely do not need top end. Hard to decent low and middle acceleration is ideal.

Can either of you two guys give more details on a TP holeshot helix,if it is a TP orange spring,i have not heard of anyone breaking one,they do have short tangs compared to other springs,i bet if you called Terry at TP he would help you out,Terry is a great guy,and a sponser of this site.

It's a 33/35 degree helix made by Dalton (I bought it from Thunder Products). I run it with the stock secondary spring

But you are not having problems correct!So its a Dalton reverse angle helix,that you bought from Terry @ Thunder products.
