Does anyone plan on using those Square aluminum front knockles instead of the plastic ones that come with the kit? zombie - I took a look at your cars page and it looks like one of your Pro 3's for sale has something similar...

I'll probably wait to get the front and rear knuckles & hubs...want to see the car as it is for durablity and performance.
good thing I purchased extra bones. I'd probably get the TC3 shiny bones for the front if they say it fits....

You could also use the fat bones from IRS.

Well, I'll let you know what I think of the Square knuckles once everything arrives, its built, and running - that would be about 6-9mo at this rate!!

They just want cheaper "bones" and want to buy them locally. I'm hoping we never supply those universals shown in the picture, as the MIP items have always been top notch IMO.
