BTW, I run loose dirt. Only loose dirt. Tires like Blockades and Calibers. Occasionally Bowfighters.
The overall balance of the truck seems to just be awesome. It was dominant at the Nationals last week, and helps the front end pull the truck out of the turn more instead of the rear end doing more of the driving out. I'm not sure about the King Headz geometry, I've never used or measured any of their parts.

No plans, we never moved many of the kits for the SCTE before.

You can make it fit with some foam, but it wasn't specifically designed to fit one.

Is there a parts list yet for converting a 2.0 to 3.0?

I went through the manuals and made a list of every new part, but it's really useless right now without being able to get prices of each part off a site light A-main.

I'd really prefer to upgrade rather than buy the 3.0 because I hate dealing with selling an old vehicle. But the shocks and chassis alone look like they'll be over $200, then there are quite a few more parts needed. If you have the new shocks already it might make sense money wise to upgrade rather than a whole new truck.

Frank looking at the manual on a 3.0 and noticed that the front down stops screws touch the chassis is that correct or is there a set of screws that thread into the chassis so you're sitting on steel to Steel instead of steel to aluminum

No, it wasn't directed towards you. I was just making a general blanket statement. My phone does the same thing. My smart phone is stupid. I know how it is. I send a text to a friend that makes me sound like I'm on dope or something. All I'm saying is everyone just needs to chill about typos. If you look at a sentence that doesn't make sense like the guy that said his son was named Losi towers or something, two words were backwards. if you look at it you can figure it out.
