I think he wants to know if there is a difference in springs between the kit you build vs the M-Spec kit. ?

The chassis is drilled for either, the shorter brace will stiffen the chassis and the shorter ones will allow more flex.

they usually take about 12 hours, give them your address and you will get a full quote including shipping. they ship very quickly and were good to deal with

I was running a team associated 1313. The throttle linkage was rubbing the servo and eventually cooked it. I cant seem to find a servo arm that will make my throttle/brake linkages not hit my servo anyone know and ideas or have a servo arm I should try????
Chris, I hear the xray horn works well. I'm using the aluminum dynamite horn on hitec servos on both mine and Linda's buggies with no issues.

+1 on the X-ray linkage. I also use the odonnell one. They are near identical.
