I like those! How are they working out? Are you running it on asphalt or concrete?

How are those shocks working out? Look really nice. Jeff at ARRMA recommended these. https://www.horizonhobby.com/produc...-granite-kraton-outcast-senton/PRO635901.html
Im doing a replacement chassis and it will be a good time to upgrade the turnbuckles and shocks. Cheers!
Uplift. Are these the same tires? https://www.ebay.com/itm/303660515110
I need something for the street. Great price if they last a few outings.

I think I'm going to get these steering parts, too. I've broken one twice already, and it doesn't really take much to do so. Quick little hit to a light pole or curb and pop!

Think there's much difference between the GPM and HotRacing blocks and knuckles?

Also the bellcrank and aluminum pivots are on my shortlist. You mentioned it tightened up the slop- is it a big difference?

Don't buy the GPM racing or HR parts they are garbage.
