Question Neodymuim magnet?

I have several tiny Neodymium magnets that are almost the exact same size as the original magnet in my zz jeep. Do you think having a magnet that strong would cause any problems? It can lift a 16oz hammer without any assistance.

Also, is the any way to stregnthen the steering return spring? I put some very large tires on the jeep, but it's kind of slow straightening out after a turn.

I dunno about the magnets, but put in more steering springs to make it pop back to center.

2 I think will be enough. What they do is after a turn, recenter your steering.
