Like the updates. I wished they'd changed the hangers/blocks to use cap head screws (2.5mm) rather than keep the countersunk 2.0mm screws, minor complaint tho.

Still better than Xray's phillips-head drywall screw to hold the case together, imo...

Truggy swaybars as well.

I can't believe how far out on the arm they are running the lower shock mounts.

The countersunk screw is there to really help center the brace. You can easily swap them out with some 40mm caphead screws, that's actually what I do on my personal cars. I mostly do it so I don't have to swap bits on my driver when pulling the diff.

Yep, truggy rear swaybar in the rear, regular front buggy swaybar in the front.

Truggy shocks all around.

They've been testing both sets of towers, truggy and buggy.

The only thing that I would really like to see would be Booted rear drive shafts.

They were running universals on the cars at DNC instead of CVs. I have never seen a booted universal.
