Hey....i have the l4 and it is a very nice kit. I havent broken a part yet, but maybe keeping a set of the front lower arms would be a good idea. I hit my friends rug rat at full speed and it snaped the arm...a pretty horrific crash, but none the less. Um, maybe a t-bar or two..and the only bearings I can think of keeping on hand are the bearings in the diff as hitting the wall ruin them. And probobly just diff parts such as the d-rings and diff balls. Also maybe the trinity white, red, and purple stuff, or other diff oils/shock oils/lubes to tune the tubes or plates....just read the past few pages about dampening stuff...lol
