Have to second that...but Serpent will be releasing New LowerRearWishbone with better material I think...
After a couple of cartwheeling I could just pull off the pivotball with my fingers. Added some CA just to secure it.

Ummm, the fuel tube, fuel tank and belts look too new ! Have you driven the car yet?
S5 is based on the NSR version of the NovaMax which is with the micro casted piston which should be the one that is currently sold. The P5 is the older one based on the NS piston.

By the way when in a crash I dont understand why the shock pistons break. What kind of impact makes the pistons break, the bumper hitting it or the arms bending back? Or is the whole car jolting when hitting a wall?

How much did you get them for? I have the 9606 vented disc and it was expensive if I'm not mistaken. The 9607 race brake pads are expensive too but I think but it's not available here...

stupid mistake 
I was keeping the items for the Vector NT - never mind, they look really good in the 710.
As for price, I can't remember, as I bought them October last year, I think.

Did the kit came with the vented disk brake?
Or is your girlfriend venting some braking on you now!

Can't you pry it out and detach it? Ummm, don't worry about it. I still got it wrong after 3 times glueing the stock brake pads. Impulse PRO, 705 and the 710 !
You bought them at RCCarinternational?

Somehow I fluked it the first time. I didn't want to try and detach it, as I thought the brake material would just break up....but there again, it's on the wrong way anyway!! I believe I got them at rccarinternational - unless serpent.at were cheaper.

I was looking at the 710 instructions online and see that they recommend using moly grease on the diff balls and thrust bearing. Can AE Stealth lube be used in these applications? What is "moly grease"?
Never heard of it. I have Castrol Synthetic Grease in a tube I use for my pinion gears for my 1/8 buggy diffs.
