1- Team Associated TC5 Short (height) ball studs - 8mm or 10mm length (cannot remember) for use at the c-hub or rear hub

1- 3mm set screw - unknown length - to replace the turnbuckle

1- Team Associated ASC7230 T4/B3/T3 BALL END CUPS (12) - i cut these ball ends in order to make the link short enough to put 1-2 degrees of negative camber into the suspension. i rather cut these ends as they are cheap compared to the xray ones.

B. Steering Links (each)
1- Team Associated TC5 Short (height) ball studs - 5mm for use at the the steering knuckle

1- Team Associated ASC7230 T4/B3/T3 BALL END CUPS (12) - at the steering knuckle

1- kit turnbuckle

1- kit rod end

C. Shocks
1- 3mm x 10mm (i think) cap head screw to replace the grub screws holding the bottom on the shock ends to the lower suspension car

D. Front Spool
2 - XRay 305135 - T2'008 Composite Solid Axle Driveshaft Adapters (2) - to replace the Atomic Stock Units

E. Rear Diff
1 - XRay 34tooth diff from my old T2'008 - only swapped this unit in after the kit original diff screw broke

Hye guys,

I have a plan to upgrade my VM2 using the 3racing parts. especially the weak parts of vm2 kit that had been claim by several people. so here are the list of what I'm going to purchase. but before that I really need some feedback about the part whether its fit or not.


A. Upper suspension links (each)
1- XRay 302664 - T2 Ball Joint 5mm Unidirectional ; these are the parts with the 'dot' on them. i've used them on the inside upper camber links.

-http://www.myrcstation.com/webshaper...oductItem=2463

1- 3mm set screw - unknown length - to replace the turnbuckle
- no problem

1- Team Associated ASC7230 T4/B3/T3 BALL END CUPS (12) - i cut these ball ends in order to make the link short enough to put 1-2 degrees of negative camber into the suspension. i rather cut these ends as they are cheap compared to the xray ones.

1- kit rod end

C. Shocks

-no idea

D. Front Spool
2 - XRay 305135 - T2'008 Composite Solid Axle Driveshaft Adapters (2) - to replace the Atomic Stock Units
-Next upgrade

E. Rear Diff

With this kit you can use 5.5t and tailgating the gas car. seriously.

Thanks for the input, but for the class we run I am limited to the ABC black can motor. I just need to make sure that the car handles better than everything else on the track. If anyone has a setup that they use on carpet please post it up.

Built the car last nite. It went together pretty well, but did have a small problem. One of the upper link turnbuckles has no threads on it. Now i need to find something else that will work. Other than that the car looks good.
