I've owned all the SCT's except the Durango and the AE4WD, the Durango is a sweet ride but parts availibilty and prices made me shy away and the AE is over engineered and looks troublesome to wrench on IMO.
Perhaps it would be quicker to use the search function, all of this info has been covered many times before.
In short you should run the brace that best suits the track you are on. There are a number of choices, some will require drilling a new hole, but I would suggest you run the truck with the current braces and only get other ones if you find it flexes too much for you in it's current state.

Hope this helps ..... I do this to every body I run as it makes them last much longer .
is shoe goo just good for preventive maintence for a body or will it fix a body too. if it will fix bodies do you put it on over the body or under the paint? or is it best to use on the underside of body directly on the plastic?
It all goes on AFTER the body is finished , lay the fiberglass drywall tape down then squeeze out some shoe goo and then spread it out to cover the tape . I have found thinner coats to work better than putting it on thick as it flexes with the paint better . You also dont want to take too long spreading it out and moving the tape around as it can soften the pain while its wet .
does it dry clear and paintable if applied directly to the underside??
It does dry clear and I use it on the outside as well when repairing cracks . You really need the drywall tape if you are repairing as the shoe goo by itself wont last long .
any help from the guys that have used this would be greatly appreicated!!!!
got a few weak spots on the scte body I need to touch up!!
Come on over and check mine out if you are at CCX next saturday , hopefully I will be at RaceEm on Sunday but I'm not sure yet .

Like already answered we are testing Hard Anodized shocks right now. They are working awesome and should be relased soon although I am not aware of an offical date yet.
Oh SNAP! Getting close guys!
