This is mostly Traxxas parts on AE bodies. The front springs are Duratrax but the rear springs, locators, and cups are Traxxas.

I still don’t even understand how it can happen. Wouldn’t it take days to go through each post you ever made and replace it with “…”? No not days, WEEKS!!! Next to impossible.

Arriving on time, after they've changed the arrival date twice.

And I suspect that it won't be tomorrow either.
