My buggy needed nothing ..my stock servo arm is still in and doing good I'm racing tonight so hope I didn't jinx my self and call me crazy but I like the plastic nuts most are not load bearing, only really the shock tower ones are .so i can see using steel or alum nuts there but I'm not yet . so it makes since ..it saves weight
