more corner speed as there is more grip as there is more flex

it also gives a little bit more steering

sd-202 which actually is the cgm steering. if udo not have this part you not even have to search for k4 c-hubs as those are useless without the steering

OK I need some hard core advise from people in the know.

What spool and driveshafts do people use on the BD.

I ran the new Yokomo alloy spool on the weekend and it was a peice of JUNK, only put 4 packs through it and it was worn so badly in the slots I couldnt use it any more.

I see a couple of pics of drive shafts with blades on, I need to know what spool and drive shafts work together.

Ive got some alloy rear diff halves but after the spool Im to scared to use them.

if your running stock or 19t the plastic yokomo spool will work fine... ( if you crash just let off the throtle as for the drive shafts the alum universials that come with the BDM are awsome.. but can bend easy. i do not have the part # but yokomo sells a steel version of these universals. or you can always use the Rayspeed / mip Style

I have a hard chassis that i never used if you're interesed. I think I filed the slots and glued the edges but it's never been mounted on a car.
