Hi Guys,

I want to get my Buggy a little bit lighter. Is somebody using the t-works Titanium Screw-Kit? Can you recommend them?

Hey Torrence,

Can you re-design the Caster Blocks in the next Gen Buggy so they take a bush like the hinge pin bushes, so we can adjust the Caster without having to spend an extra $200 on the 15 and 20 degree Caster Blocks?

Will the Tki4 c-hubs fit? If so, it has what you want

If it has a stock spur gear than you can use other bells. The 0.8 pitch would need a HB bell.

If you are using a stock HB flywheel, I am not aware of a different brand clutch bell that will work. There are several other flywheel/bell combos that you can use on the cars. I have seen the Nova and maybe a few of the Reds setups on HB cars. The TLR/Tekno setup will NOT work on the HB cars. The clutch bell will rub your fuel tank if you use the TLR/Tekno setup.
