Lunsford titanium turnbuckle my friend is the solution...
I blieve all of the turnbuckles are sizes they already manufactured for other cars. If you just measure the total length of them and them search for the associated turnbuckles that length, you should be good.
I would check my manual and give you the lengths needed, but I am on vacation and dont have my rc stuff with me.

Gear diff issues
So I went with the genuine Yokomo BD5 gear diff for the TC6 but am regretting it. The driveshaft blades bottom out inside the outdrives, so you have to heavily trim the blades for it to fit. This has resulted in heavy wear to both the blades and outdrives due to the very small contact patch that is left on the blades.
Have others had the same issue? What about the Spec-R diff, do the blades need trimming or does it fit without issue (once drilled to 6.5mm)?

one thing i noticed about the dial-a-grips. they dont like to be used with the plastic spacers used in the kit. aluminum spacers are recomended.

Hey man you need to strip the car and rebuild it and check for tweak every couple of parts you put on to find what is causing it.i would say build as per the manual and keep checking though out the rebuild and ones you find what is causing it you can work out how to fix it.There is no use trying to figure it out when is built.there are many little technical ways to get rid of it but sometimes it just a bad kit.

I thought about it, but after seeing what the kit full length spacers do I think full length may cause binding (you are forcing right angled pins and mounts off to an angle with rear tow). Even though using washer type spacers looks to be susceptible to movement, they are rock solid and will not budge with the dial-a-grip That makes it only a "feel good" part, and you can look to China for those please.

Hey Vern, any chance you could generate some sort of reference chart to match up D-A-Gs to the Associated parts?
I.E
D-A-G in B, 0 turns = B0 (if thats correct...)
