Agreed.. you need to replace the 5.00 bag of turnbuckle ends 2x per year and maybe even swap the ball's every year or so (no need to get the HDs). The front inner pin on the cvd will wear, so that you replace 1x per year as well 19.00 part. So unless you break stuff or drive really bad expect to spend at least 30 a year to freshen it up. Don't worry about a little slop though, thats when losi's are their fastest. If those rod ends don't fall off, magic! Run it and win!

Nothing else wears much unless you crash a ton then all bets are off. But way more durable than most
