I would say clutch bearings/chassis bearings, extra tank, hinge pins/hinge pin inserts, shock shafts...arms/spindles/c-hubs/rear hubs if you feel like spending more, though I can't remember the last time I saw a Tekno truggy outright break.

Oh...and if you're running the stock clutch shoes...extra shoes, they wear pretty quick with the stock setup. We switched to a 2-aluminum and 2-carbon shoe clutch setup (using Serpent carbon shoes 600228) and the shoes are lasting at least 2 to 3 times longer now.

what would you guys say are the main items to get if going from an NT48 vehicle NT48.3 specs?

For example, hingepin carriers versus some other items which is more bling.

Thanks!

Cain, to be honest, the biggest changes from the original NT48 to the .3 are the chassis, fuel tank and spur. There was an issue with the original NT where on a hard landing the chassis would flex and it could take out the spur gear. Be sure to use the latest spur from the NB48.4.

I didn't answer, as personally, I didn't like any of the setups I found for our loose dirt bumpy track.

I would personally start with my setup I have attached. Let me know your thoughts.
