That will be my next purchase along with the new hubs. And schnell, I can't imagine the factory team ones are all that much better than the new Integy ones. They are both billet and this one is hard anodized. So we will see. These look good too. I'm in though. I'll order some in a few days.
Your problem with the front plastic bulkhead is normal. We use only the plastic ones because they are very light. Just get a new plastic front bulkhead and replace those front metric screws with 4-40 x 1" socket caps. The stock metric ones have fine threads which chews up the plastic quickly. The 4-40 is imperial and coarse and do not. Keep the rear ones metric.
Also we use plastic rear carriers because they are cheap to replace and hold up well. The other thing to consider is to keep the unsprung weight down. As you go further out from the suspension arms, try using light parts to boost suspension performance. If the wheel/tires could weigh nothing, buggies would drive on rails.
