Yep. New spindles, casters, rack, TiCN shafts, shock seals & machined internals and rear hubs. Only thing I'm missing is the TiCN hinge pin kit.

Figured this thread could use a little jolt of excitement!!

Is all that is needed to use the 2.0 steering rack in the SCT. part #'s TLR 231013 and TLR 6028? Also any tricks or tips to doing this?

Thank You

6028 is the 4-40 ballstud that is currently used on the servo horn and drag link mount on the rak.

i think you can use the ones from the original rack, i am not aware of any hardware change there.
I am not sure, but you may need the low-mount ballstuds as well for the toe links

i will find out tomorrow I hope, when i get to my lhs to pick up my parts.

How long should I get aftermarket turnbuckles? On the first page it says 49mm but my friend says get longer ones. ? Actually I'd rather just get the captured ends and use stock turnbuckles? Can anyone point me to some good ones that they know work?

I am yet to have issues with the stock ones. I replaced my rod ends after 6 or 7 races, no issues.

I hated to do it but I bolted on the traxxas turnbuckles and called it good, they work great and don't fall off.

Give it time......I had no issues for the longest time, then one popped off while I was on a TQ pace, I replaced it before the main, the other side popped off while I had a half a lap lead in the A main, I put the traxxas ones on and have not looked back.

What length traxxas ones you using?

I bought my sct used and they pop off pretty easy. And steering rack was wooped.

Docrc

If they pop off easily they need replacing.
Same with your wooped rack.

You can check out first page here Scott kelly has done an awesome job with this thread. Lots of new steering options to check out when as you say rack gets whooped.

Cool - how's it work? Apparently based on posts in the 22 thread, the front arms are a bit different as well in terms of geometry (maybe just shock geometry, with the spacing from the arm), but they don't make those for the SCT yet..

The new shock seals are very good..no more leaks..you need both TLR233005 & TLR233006
