Well I hit the track for the first time last night with my 410R. I really enjoyed it for the 4 minutes or so that I had before it broke. LOL. I kind of figured that breakage would be an issue with the R until I get some upgrades done. I'm going to upgrade as I break. So I'm going to order the aluminum FF hangar. I see that hangar uses pivot balls. Will I be ok to run the aluminum FF and the plastic FR for now? Or will the pivot balls cause the pins to sit differently requiring my to upgrade both FF/FR at the same time?

I would get both along with HD pins and be done with it.

HD pins? I haven't heard of these. I didn't notice anything on the TD option page. Are these from a different manufacturer?

Sorry, I just went back and looked. Found the HD pins. Should have done that before posting.

XB4 body is very nice and it's so SIMPLE to paint! LOL

The Kuhler body is gorgeous but it is a difficult body to paint. For me the absolute most difficult one to date.

I just went through this . Took me almost 4 weeks to get the pivot bushing/balls . You can use the alum and plastic hanger no problem. I would suggest you get the alum rf while your placing an order. That one will break next and its a time killer to change out at the track.

I am using a MIP bypass piston set up right now and am wondering if anyone else has used them ? My track is 2 hours away , so to constantly go test and tune is very hard this time of year . I would like to get in the ball park the next time I go ... Do you find you are using heavier oil ( by 10wt or more) in the front than the rear ?

Thanks. Looks like today is my lucky day. The lhs doesn't stock a lot of TD parts, but they actually have the aluminum FF in stock and I found 2 pivot balls from my Desc. I'll get that rf ordered up.

Hey guys, will a Savox 1258 fit in this? I already have a 1257 in it, but have two 1258's I could use. I found some Blaster dry lube at Home Depot for like $6 that I will use on the drive line components.
