I though that what it was use for just like a real car but with out the shock case, it would be nice if you could come up with a shock with a spring that would fit the 1/12 car

you never know what they will come with next.

Is there a place where you can buy a pinion, with holes drilled in it? For the motor screws to adjust it?

that is how it works.the front kingpins with no oil work like a shock with no oil.the suspension reacts too quickly and never lets the wheels set.we slow the reaction down enough to match the surface with oil on the kingpins.
