My 1/6 scale M113 uses 6.3mm torsion bars, it could go a bit lighter depends on total weight. The chassis is a 2mm steel bent tub and fairly heavy steel wheels that I made.

Looks like your call for 4mm wire is spot on. :) The SV15 chassis was originally for a 1/6 scale M113. :) Mike ________________________________ From: taranaki tanker <[email protected]> To: R/C Tank Combat <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 26, 2016 2:58 AM Subject: Re: [TANKS] Torsion spring making Hey thanks for the info mate. What would be a good size wire to use on a 1/6th m113 fsv? Something about 2-3 mm be good enough? Am a bit limited on the sizes I can get hold of for a decent price, 1,8 meters for$15 nz -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
