Why isn't the landing gear holding up on my 500,000 pound 767?

Seriously, i've got springs set to 2000% strength and damper above the wheels, and I tried 250% and disabled wheel suspension. Each time, the gear just collapses and makes the plane explode. Can someone tell me what the heck is going on?

    Try adding "hidden" gear (via XML invis, or just nudging tons of gear into the original gear)

    Bro it's 500K pounds. If you are trying to use replica gear it's might not be strong/stable enough. If you are using custom gear, turn off suspension.

    That's stupid... and defeats the purpose of realism. @APimpNamedSlickback

    @BaconAircraft Oh god, ok, I guess i'll try 20x mass scale for it then, I fixed the issue without the spring but I want to try it with it so it's smoother. Thx bro :)

    @Fjorge Yeah, it seems like it, its really annoying

    @WEAPONSMITH I don't know how to do that yet, unfortunately.

    because it is 500000 pounds... but really custom suspension is horrible... the shock always explodes... try using scaled stock wheels... only tip I can give you sorry

    @EpicPigster1 Currently, Im running 8000% at 8x mass scale for the spring and 16x mass scale for the wheels. ...and my A340 is not even 1/4 of the realistic weight.

    Heres a tip: Set the spring for 8000%, edit the mass scale accordingly. If it collapses, increase the mass scale on both the wheels and spring

    @EpicPigster1 I don't think it's possible, sadly.

    @RailfanEthan RIP dude, knowing that I'm going to try to find a solution. By the way, do you know how to make stronger rotators? Mine are set to a mass scale of 1, but they don't retract the landing gear smoothly, it's really jagged and weird.

    I had that happen on one of my old amphibious bombers. I haven't found any solution to this day.
