you wont need to purchase the new bulkheads if you purchase the WCE edition shocktowers.... basically they are the Andy Moore edtion towers.(moorespeed)

I would really look into purchasing the latest TC edition rear diff assembly. It comes with ceramic balls which are almost maintaince free.... just make sure the diff rings are sanded flat with no high spots and it will last forever!!( well almost forever)

Also purchase the front multi diff, it has 2 setting, one-way and spool combo. another great item offered in theTC....

Also found out the rear hinge pin mounts for the front arms are different... basically the front/ rear mount.... it is machined so much that when you raise the roll center really high, the steering turnbuckles dont rub too much. I will be purchasing this item so i dont have to grind away at the mount for my moorespeed car. i also currently own the TC.
