Aluminum hubs? :-)

If we do a major revision with many updates, we will probably have a service pack sold separately to update the older version vehicles to the new spec.
Running a stiffer sway bar with a lighter diff oil makes sense. It will keep the inside wheel on the ground better and the diff shouldn't diff out as much. However, I wouldn't make a sway bar decision based on diff oil thickness. The sway bar change should be according to track conditions.
We have aluminum servo horns coming out shortly

.Out here with the dust bowl conditions that can be found at times, or the indoor skating rink when its around 30 or less if lucky traction becomes hard to find lol.
Right now, i think my sway setup is 2.2 or so all around. Will give it a look. But so far, liking the 7-5-2 setup. May try 7-7-2 next.
By the way, has anyone heard if outerwears will make a filter for the Tekno? like how it keeps things clean inside but allowing airflow.
As for the whole aluminum hubs, any opinions on using risers like what AE has been doing with the +8mm mod as an additional tuning option? (or similar to the Exotek carrier hopup)

Looking for a rear shock tower replacement what do you guys suggest a corbon replacement or the EB48 stock alum tower. Also will the EB48 rear mud guards fit the SCT410?

Just the update is good enough news for me lol. Not that I feel the need. So far , I don't see breakage as an issue unless I really do something stupid like let a customer try it out as a demo. This thing is solid!
Thanks for putting out a freaking awesome truck Tekno! I love it. I even love the sound with the castle motor. It kind of reminds me of R2D2 in stressful situations

I've read thru a lot of the recent posts and saw a few things but can you list the updated parts you guys are working on and rough release dates? Check my signature to see how many of each I will buy when they come out.

Also, just buy the stock SCT410 tower. No reason to upgrade unless you want the alternative flex that CF gives you.

The guards will fit you just have to trim them to clear the inside of the SC rims. Note: Make sure to trim them for the full range of the suspensions movements.

Yes, when the old parts are gone, they are gone. If you get just one replacement TKR6008, you'll have enough parts to do one end of the car. If you don't update the whole car it'll still operate just fine. The current parts work fine, we haven't received one complaint and there definitely isn't an issue with them. We just saw an opportunity to make them better, so we did.
As I mentioned, we'll see about making a revision history, I totally understand the request.

Danny,
Great to see you pop onto the forum when you can, I think it demonstrates a real passion and concern about how customers are experiencing your products.
There is no decision you will make that will please everyone - "if we are all thinking alike then somebody isn't thinking," as the saying goes.
I couldn't be more delighted with the SCT410, it's far and away the nicest kit I've owned in terms of price, performance and quality. Keep doing what you;re doing...

Tried to search through this thread, but couldn't find an answer. What body is everyone running? I think a lower profile body will help a bit with my traction rolling issue.
I'm running the Proline Raptor body right now (not the flow tek) and it seems to sit pretty high even on the lowest body post setting. I was looking into the FTW Diamondback and JConcepts Hi-flow body as well. Anyone else try either body, or notice better handling when switching from a regular Proline body to a more low profile body?

Thanks for the info on the mud guards, I will order them up.

Durability is not the best on the TLR Hi Performance body, however.
