Almost done with the 12L4 construction and I have to say these cars are constructed efficiently. I've seen kits with too much unecessary alloy, plastic, and fastener parts. Sometimes less is more. A couple of things I want to add for people building the 12L4. The front hinge and king pins have to be polished for optimal performance. I used Blue Magic polish with a dremel and rag and now the suspension and steering is slick. For the rear top deck, I added some teflon tape per Lufaso's instructions. Don't put too much diff grease when assembling the rear axle. What range of pinions should I get for the 100t spur using a Monster Stock Motor?
what does the teflon tape do to the top deck and how did you put it on.. If you can post a pic that would be cool
