Ironically, I don't miss my SCTE at all because after one season of racing it, I had to replace half the truck three different times (outdrives 2x, all CVD's 3x, all diff pins and gears 3x not including the ones they sent me free because the first batch was junk and all of the camber link/tie rod ball ends about 4x because they wore so fast and created excess slop).

Expect to drop quite a bit in parts just to keep it running. It's a great truck when it's fresh, but it fell off very quickly for me.

So far the AE truck is wearing very well for me and the materials and build quality are far superior. It is a little funky to work on at first, but I got used to it quickly and don't mind it at all now.
