Registered mail is such a pain! All the other parts are correct. The quantities are high as I'm trying this on my old Pan F1 also and I wanted some spares.

9 x 3Racing (#3RAC-TR342) 64 Titanium 3X42mm Turnbuckle (3RAC-TR342) = USD$44.10
3 x *Xpress (#XPA-BN4816) 4.8/16.55 Ball End (10Pcs) (XPA-BN4816) = USD$9.00
3 x *Xpress (#XP07-102V2) Alloy Upper Arm Joint Set (XP07-102V2) = USD$17.70 They also make a plastic version of this part for under $3.00 a pair
2 x *Xpress (#XPA-FB005) 4.8mm Pillow Ball With Stand (For Screw) (1 (XPA-FB005) = USD$9.00
I put a set together. Turnbuckles need to be shorter, 38 front, 35 rear. I'll head to the hobby shop to go pick up some Dubro 2321s from the hobby shop for the kingpin link end and a set of the right sized turnbuckles.
