Just size them up with Lunsford ones. ( i also use Xray fixed links instead of ball studs. ) I did'nt even build my car with the aluminum ones.

I noticed you bought the TA05 stabilizer set. Does that work with the 415MSX? Thanks

To Fab and Ed

Many many thanks for all your help today at Carpetwars...I am truely grateful for the time you spent today helping me set up the 415. Now I just have to improve my driving - not such an easy task I think!!!!

Hopefully I will have completed the 'to-do' list by the next time we meet!!!

Cheers guys and thanks again

lipo wont fit unless you use the stick pack bulk heads and uperdeck
also you have to use the none stick pack chassis aka the stock one becase the lipo is longer then a stick pack.

I would have said my MSX but the MRE is getting better all the time.
Still tweak issues though
