ok. just thought i'd ask. the kit came with a pair for the front, but that's it. and haven't seen any around, neither.

i started milling the rpm trans case last night. i got the one side done, and i'll finish up the other later to night.

LOL... if it still there, I will have it next weekend.

Was going to go today, but really don't want to drive that far and ruin my weekend.... I will be at the NAIAS 2007 Auto Show ALL day Sun and Mon, so it will shoot me weekend.

Next week.

just an update. i was lucky enough to find a set of shock towers at my lhs. the front one is correct for this chassis. the one that came with the kit has the holes for the nose brace tubes to go through.

tryin' to keep up with hoopty. :wink:

THANKS!!! :lol:

i know there was a losi buggy body hanging at the hobby shop. i looked at it, but i can't remember if it was a double or a triple x.

i'm goin' on a road trip on saturday to a hobby shop i used to race at in the early 90's. i haven't been there since then. so, i'm hoping to find some neat old stuff. :wink:
