I grabbed the shock caps. Those look really nice ???

I don't mind buying the front and rear but I don't think is needed.

I like to see aluminum center transmission housing.

 

[Niz55]

On the other hand, I sure love to get the rid of the rear hub sloppiness.

I am not sure about those carbon fiber links. They might break or chip.

What happened to the nice list breakdown? I was looking to go through it tonight.

 

[mickRR]

What happened to the full list of all the products for hop ups at the beginning of this thread I don't see it anymore

It's a shame it's taking so long for the usual guys and companies to make hop ups for the Kraton 8s, it's been out long enough!

Well, there has been this illness thing going around...

I'm thinking in terms of Just bash it and m2c having their own cnc machines, designing software and what not, all they'd need then are the raw materials.

 

[DaveT]

Anyone get the Afro Lucha billet wheels for the Kraton 8s

 

[ThiBor]

Just bash it rc do an alternative chassis to the M2C, if you don't want to change the wheelbase and mess about cutting body shells.

just ordered those yesterday from m2c. i like the way gpm has nylon inserts but unfortunately they are 6060 and not 7075.

 

[Armarookie43]

Has anyone tried these aftermarket driveshafts for the K8S? I bent my stock 5mm ones between my first and second run. They claim that they are tougher than stock at 7mm thick ?

I have them but haven't ran the car yet.

What are you waiting for? I want to see if they are worth it ?

Is there a servo saver upgrade, or is it ok and the stock servo just sucks, I've tried everything I know to get this car to turn and it just struggles to return the wheels to center. There is so much slop in the steering and the servo saver seems to work itself off center and not return properly???

I've got the m2c servo saver axle coming and a new servo and tray, but I don't know if that will fix the servo saver itself.
