SWEET the kit wheels have little holes where you can dab glue in from the backside!

I do think a smaller diameter front would be even better for me tho. Will keep u posted.
Now that I have the shock seal situation tamed I'll revisit the rear swaybar and the tuning for it.

Is it worth waiting for a new round of kits, so that AE can get some of their parts issues straightened out? I have been following the thread off and on, it seems like there have been a lot of issues with things not being machined correctly or pieces missing, etc... I'd like to get one, just a bit tentative with all the reports of various parts issues and the need for do-it-yourself fixes.

Keep in mind that myriads of SC10 owners without issues don't post about our "non" issues. Everything was perfect on my kit. If you can find one, go for it.

Same here. Not one problem with mine. I even checked the screws in the shocks after one race weekend, and mine were all tight. Great truck and not a single broken part.

This.

And another vote for zero issues. My kit was just fine.

No problem with mine either, the kit went together without issue. Did everything via the manual on slipper/clicker tuning and have not had to touch it since I built it. I get almost twice the run times versus the Losi with a 550 5.5. Without a doubt it's better than I expected and would recommend it in a heart beat.

Did I read correctly the Losi SCTE swaybar kits will fit perfectly? If so whats the part number or numbers needed to get those?

I have never used/needed expo, I would not say it's critical.

Another for a flawless build, did not get to race her yet, but toyed around at the track, have to tighte up the belt but that is it so far. It does have gobs of steering, and I do not think I will be looking for more, will see this weekend. So far I like it!
