the C and D plates require the C and D inserts also. The C inserts have been in stock recently but D inserts still hard to get

Anyone else have a lot of play in the rear arms, specifically the rear inner hinge pins? Mine had almost 1mm of slop on each side. I made some shims out of factory team ball stud washers (didn't have any plastic washers) but wow that was a lot of play in the rear. Otherwise the kit has been great so far.

My buggy did when I ran the stock arm mounts but as soon as I installed the aluminum d & c arm mounts that slope went away (amazingly) lol.

yeah, about 1mm with the plastic mounts. I had some tlr22 shims and used a .5mm on each. 1mm caused a little bind for me.


I just installed the AE alum top shaft and it is much free'er. Weight aside, there is definitely less friction in the drive terrain.

Just to be clear those two comments are different topics right? I want to pick up the alloy top shaft...got to build another order. Was pretty happy that the 22t came with several non stock parts I was going to add (30 deg AL kick up, 3.0 deg LRC rear toe plate) so I have a few bucks I set aside.

Well building my second b5 I noticed the outdrives having a charcoal color to them. I can scratch it off. Could ruin my diff? If it was to flake off and make it all gritty? Really wanna run tomorrow.
