Good to know ,thanks.

I already have bought a 2.0 screw kit and I am going to buy the EU version turrets so I should be quite safe with few extra arms too.

I have also heard that diff cases may got broken, have you heard anything about ?

Have you ever had a faulty bearing by the way ?

Thanks

Diff cases will break if you break a shock tower. Especially the front. Don't ask me how I know......

In the 8 months that I have been running my 2.0 buggy (nitro and electric)
I have only broken a shock tower (original thin 2.0 front, not the current
upgraded one), front gearbox, radio tray and worn out two front center cv
driveshafts. That's it. Pretty impressive, if you ask me.

I thought that there was a revision on the us 2.0 tower my bad. I am going to get another buggy and Mamba monster 2650 or 1800 kv motor and speed control for back up. I like that matrix chassis Ans shock tower kit. I would like to get them for weight.
