Didn't look as trick but was much easier to work with. |

That's funny because my current eb48sl build has beeb on hold for that exact reason. But I'm on my way to the hardware store to pickup stainless varieties of everything the kit needs as a backup. Sadly I've had a lot of weird issues with my build that I've never experienced with any of my other Tekno kits.

I wouldn't run stainless unless you plan on getting your car wet often, they're not as strong as the black oxide coated screws.
I'll have to see what they've got at the store today because I'm dying to get back to work on this kit lol. I do have some titanium screws coming but they won't be here for a day or two. |
Wow,i thought the nitro would have hit before the ebuggy? Love the new body too

Its interesting to see that Emulsion (if I am reading it right) will become like the default for the buggy. Maybe its because the mains are not as long, but I do recall at least from a nitro point of view concerns about shock consistency over a long main with emulsion. But emulsion does work well from what I have seen and told. |

TonyScrewz has equipped my vehicles. His stuff works quite well and he shipped fast the last few orders I have had from him.

All of our team guys run emulsion in their nitros now too. If you build them how the kit instructs with the second bleed they stay pretty consistent over the long mains.
I am curious now how long before we see any more ".4" vehicle annoucements ;) |
