This is what I found, but these seem to be about 1/8" too long... maybe you could shave them down 1/8. No. 2 x 3/8" Socket Head Sheet Metal Screws (QTY/PKG: 8 )#380 My buddy got me the screws a very long time ago...And, mine were black.

Also, that same screw shaved down about 1/8" in the button head is excellent in the front brace behind the bumper. They "lock in" and do not strip the plastic there either.

Rear: #2 pistons, 2 limiters, Kyosho bright yellow springs, 27.5 oil, inside on the tower, and inside on the arm. 1 washer under the u-brace ball stud located on the inside hole of the u-brace. B hole on the "A" plastic insert of the aluminum 0 degree hubs. 3 degree toe block with "1" degree of anti squat. 24.5mm ride height. Thick battery pad in the front, and a thin one in the rear. Of course, all the weights in the usual places too. I honestly feel the key to this set up is the K springs...car stays so flat in the corners, and jumps like a dream.
Personally Seen this Car and it Hauls A** , Don't be ashamed to try it , 2 limiters . I been running really close to this but with AE BROWN'S/GREENS .With +8 Bright Yellow Rears And Mustard Colored Front K' Springs!

Bilster's car is on Rails Hands Down !*

He may try the +8 for S&Gs...we'll see.

Where are you guys getting yours?

The RTR kit has all the low end parts in it, and the Factory Team 4.1 has all the best parts in it, minus electronics of course. Plus, the FT kit will save you $ in the long run because you will not have to purchase all the "good stuff" as it already comes in the kit.
