Hex's held up fine. Looks like if I'm going to be stubborn and stick with 17mm I will need the help of my machinist buddy to make a set for me.

After my first day with it...
Flew fine, neutral. I did get parachute with the air guards if my nose was up. Removed and much better (indoor).
Rear end felt a little too sprung for me, will be going up from 35/30 to 37.5/32.5 and try that. Steering is incredible, need to tame that down a bit.
Really lose rear end on corner entry, exit its locked in, need to find a balance. May be diff fluid, 7/5/5 now so I'm going to up the weight in the center before I change roll centers.
All in all though, I like the truck and will like it better once I have found my setup

Thanx for letting me try the Kyo springs Kuya.
Thicker rear diff fluid will give you less turn into the corners.
