I highly doubt you will see a car with every upgrade on them. Who knows, I never thought a "Lite" version geared towards stock would come out. But I would not hold your breath on a Full FT version any time soon. Many people dont like the alum rear hubs or hard parts. And alum/Ti screws might be a support nightmare for them. Can you imagin all of the people not prethreading the platics and using power tools to put their car together. Then crying to AE when it all goes wrong. I was surprised the lite didnt come with the CF strap. But most of the stock guys I know remove the strap and foams and tape the pack in anyway to save 20 grams. The alum steering is meh. Not even an upgrade IMO, just bling. And the alum front axles? Who knows, they might be good...or shitty. Time will tell. I have the alum shock caps and I took them off my car. I like the plastic ones better. But the alum caps dont slope out like the plastic ones do.

It's been years since a FT came with aluminum shock caps and aluminum screws and "hard parts" though.

I think they will bring a Factory Kit sooner or later or why put the "lite" designation with this kit and not just call it a Factory Kit. From a market stand point they add "lite" to get it down to fighting weight for the big stock class or most classes and dirt types with three different batteries and weights that can be used. The Team Kit and RM kits can fade and keep RM conversion for die hards. We are sitting at one kit at that point and then they can roll out a Factory Kit, a little heavier with aluminium bling where "lite" doesn't matter. We have the iPhone and iPhone +.

trying to get some steering going into a high speed sweeper indoor clay med-high grip, no matter what i do it seems to push wide and won't hug the pipe or even stay in the line. i have tapered pistons in the front and rear due to the bumpiness of our track tried adding a little weight under the servo but i can't seem to get it to steer like i want it to. any suggestions?

This is a huge adjustment to the car that a lot of people overlook. Just using 2 limiters all around isn't enough. Measure that droop front and rear!

Has anyone been down to zero, 0, numero uno spacers for roll center? (stock plastic mount) I did this past weekend. I'm still running 17.5 until I get the rear end a little more situated. My biggest problem is diff/diff halves/dog bone pins. Looks like its time to harden these things as greasing only last a heat or two at best. They've lasted nearly a year but dang it that's just unacceptable lol.

What is wrong with the rear end of the car? I assume you are not using pucks?
