agreed first choice would be the xray (zero leaks) my second choice would be the tc7.1 shocks

so far it has been good, what surface are you running it on? you cant just install the conversion and run the same set up as before, you need to adjust it to the new chassis.

I m interested in the MTS upgrade kit. Do the Xray suspension mounts fit? And the servo mount fit a 2013/2014 Xray? If so, I can move my entire t4 2014 onto the kit. Thx
