Ok so I really love my Losi Ten SCTE. Therefore I will buy a new roller, break it down to its component parts and rebuild with these parts. You experts here please add to the list things I will need!

Thanks!

You can save yourself some money and not buy all those aluminum parts. I think the STRC steering kit is really the only aluminum piece I'd buy from that list.

Especially not the shock caps. I'd stick with the stock plastic caps (and drill the bleeder hole) or get the Losi caps with the bleeder already on it.

In place of the aluminum shock tower, get some CF ones, or the tuning kit that comes with the towers.

Why the metric set?
I think you need the standard set for this truck.

If you would like more bling, titanium turnbuckles and titanium screw kit are available. The locking wheel hexes are nice so as to not lose any pins as the stock ones can fall out fairly easily if you take your wheels off after racing.

Ok so this isnt final, but this seems to be the best package to fix all the problems with the SCTE. Drivetrain will be not only tougher but lighter. Will have a lighter chassis, mud guards cuz ther cool. The CVD keepers to hold in the tougher better CVDs. Full set of new screws which I like.

Is there anything else that Im missing here?

Dude, we get it. You schill their stuff. He said he likes Tony's screws. Not the end of the world. I'm sure trick parts will still give you 10% off screws if he buys Tony's.

I couldn't help but notice all three guys who were saying how much they love trick parts screws have them listed in their signature as required by TP to get their 10% off .

I have no problem with trick parts. I have ordered from them and after an initial snafu, I got great customer service from them. I dont have a problem with reps (sponsored drivers) letting people know about the products they rep, but after you do that and the person says "no thanks, I have brand loyalty toward company X" AND THEN the rep still comes back to try and schill? Well I don't think you stand much of a chance of turning that person into a customer and worse case, you risk turning that person and potentially other people away from your products.

Because I've had a good experience with trick parts, I feel bad for the guy with some of the stuff his reps have done. There was one guy who was on here schilling their stuff and he hadn't even gotten his first screw set yet.
