my gold pan runner

Hello, i have been looking on this forum for a while now and I have learned a lot of about the gold pans thanks to all you guys. So I just wanted to say thank you.

I still have a few questions that I cant find the answers to so I decided to just post them up.

I wanted to put the 10t front end on my gold pan. I know im going to need the 10t nose plate, bulkhead, 1.02 shocks, and the shock tower. (if there is anything im missing please tell me lol)

But I have the mip steering rack on my buggy right now. Will I still be able to use that steering rack on the 10t front end?

Thanks.

I will post up some pics of my buggy later so show you what it looks like so far.

I am using the worlds front end with the 10T nose but I retained my stock short shocks and shock tower. I had to modify the shock tower with a dremel but it works just fine.

I like that paint job on your body! Plain but very cool and retro looking!
