" they also improve suspension efficiency as they do not bend under heavy loads like the kit’s composite bushings do.

the composite ones are supported by a nut and titanium screw in my case. It would be extreme to have them bend right? Look super cool though.

I like those rdrp shock standoffs. I like how they are one piece. Pretty slick.

Well, on top of the gear box. I HATE button head 2mm screws. The tool surface area on the hex is shallow. So I was thinking about using some flat head screws on the top. Maybe SS/Ti screws, with purple washers. Or purple screws with silver alum coned washers. Just a blink thing. My daughter loves purple and it would match her paint scheme which is purple/white/pink.


Anyone use fastener-express? Lookin at these

+1 have ordered from fastener express a bunch of times. Their aluminum screws are top quality. The hex heads are nice and deep.

For mod

-Ti Turnbuckles (durability)
- lead weight for the front of the car, to keep the wheelies to a minimum.
- Avid Evo slipper for consistent slipper settings
