Don't forget to cut down the tab on the throttle linkage that goes under the little spring clip, or else you may scratch the side of your shiny new bodies or worse bend the spindle if it jams!________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Have To Agree with welshpug! about the sus kit... i have a Gmax suspension kit on mine.. and within not too long one of the front shocks started squeaking, and now is beginning to leak.. so i got some Koni 60mm Springs Off Sarah on here.. and am getting Bilstein Front and rear shocks off of ebay.. the lot will end up costing approx ________________________________________ Team Dirty Black...
