Got my part list yesterday and notice a few things, someone mentioned about a narrower front one way, but I notice on the part list there is a 2nd option with double bearing, what would that be, any clue Dave?

Do you know if they have kept the old style shocks? I didn't see any new part, so I am guessing that's the case, any comment Dave?

New Pic would be good Dave, look forward to next monday

The double bearing oneway has a total of 4 bearings vice the standard oneway that has only 2... the 4 bearing is the havey duty version..

Thanks Dave, great to hear they are doing the HD version of the one way, sound like the Stinger are prepared for Mod Racing.

Any suggestions on what to stock up for parts purpose?

I would stock up on steering knukles and c-hubs ...and a few sets of sus arms... also do you self a favor and get a P-DUB bumper for the SD/BD... because the stinger and the Yok`s now share the same bumperother than that... I should be able to tell tou guys what parts are weak and what parts are good here in about a weeks timeframe

Pity neither Alex Racing, nor Xenon have plans to make a locked diff (spool) for the Stinger! Maybe the outdrives of the normal diff will be stronger than those on the Barracuda though and will be able run a tightened front diff at least

THe new diffs are steel..so they should be able to hold up to the tasks of a front diff...but more than likely Speedtech might make a front spool...

Hey.

I have the 4 bearing oneway for my Cuda. It's super. Feels like it is giving just a bit more pull - and I'm driving Stock....

P.S. I'm also looking very much to see and hear more news from you Dave.
Also looking forword to getting my own back here i Denmark - Just waiting now...

I think that I'm going to try with a spliff until I can get my hands on a spool.
Have tried it on my Cuda on a small indoor curcit. Worked pretty well i think.
You just have to rebuild relativly often... I could drive one raceday on it and then I had to rebuild.
