When the kit 1st came out I put the rear aluminum 1degree hubs on. The stock ones where a liitle off in degrees.

Other than that it was'nt for performace.
That car ROCKED!.

I will be running carpet only on foams. Not sure what degree to run but I have seen quite a few people putting the alluminum hubs on the back.

Any thoughts on alluminum steering knuckles?

If your gonna run the T2 on foams then maybe a thicker top deck or something. The P-Dub bumper is a good call also like someone else pointed out.

It currently has the BMI chassis upgrade on it. What are common parts that break on the T2? Hubs? Arms? etc..
