Thanks for the replies guys, I'll just keep the plastic one then and buy an extra plastic steering set instead as those seem to be wearing out.

TLR1072 - Team Losi Racing Aluminum Front Pivot (TLR 22)

Is this worth it to add weight to the front? Or is the brass shim enough.

Searched this thread, but no results, do you guys use the rubber spacers on the steering servo mounts on this build? I routinely do on my 8ights as they tend to keep the servos alive in 1/8.

What's wrong with Tekin RS for the 22? Should I get the RS Pro instead? or a different brand altogether? Also, do you directly solder motor to speedo or do you use bullets for easier maintenance?

Studying build manual, would it be beneficial to build in ceramic bearings for the internal tranny bearings? Would it have less drivetrain loss, or it's not worth it for the 5x higher cost?

Most of the 1/8th electric guys in my area burn out their ESC, so I thought by going 'overkill' on the ESC I'd prevent a 'burnout'. Isn't 8.5 too fast and runs hot? Wouldn't a 13.5 run cooler and...
