How do the kit ball studs hold up? Any reason to upgrade to titanium?

I’ve had no issues with the ball studs, only problem I’ve had related to them was the ball stud pulling out of the rear hubs. I replaced the hub but am going to order a longer ball studs so I could use a nut on the back of the rear hub so they don’t pull out again.

(not I) Replace with a new ball cup. I have had some new ones go out "quickly" but when replaced they are nice and tight

Sure bro super interested. Are you from bugle boy racing, they make some great shells for some other cars. A cab rear cat sx2 or a original lazer type would look great.

I love cab forward shells (the d413 dex410 zx6) but the xb4 has gotten succesively uglier with each shell they release, the original was least offensive, then came the tiny windowed xb4 2wd and then the ultra ugly jconcepts finnisher.
