What affect does the 12 degree do that makes the car that much better

I don't think another manufacturers rings will fit but I believe you can use the 2.5mm schelle/avid diff balls. Also, not sure which one, but the xray diffs use an axial thrust similiar to what they sell as options as well.** I havent tried these parts, i just use the standard xray stuff so you'll have to check it out yourself as well.

Yep that sums it all up very nicely. It changed the entire characteristic of the car. I was able to drive the car a lot harder into the corners. I have never had such a great affect made by a simple bolt on. Just sucks it's $90 bucks but I would spend that any day to make a car that much better.

I would think it would be great on med-high bite clay. I'll be running my car on a medium bite dirt track in the next few weeks.

Default Body?

I've got a 15 and would like to get a body other than the stock X-ray body. Does anyone know where to get a aftermarket body for it?

The new 2016 body is a direct fit and looks really good. You should check it out.

Cool thanks. I know the jcon body won't fit it's to short and I see a few different "wide" bodys but I'm not sure if that's what I need.
