Default RE: Ticked off!! Redcat parts problem!!!! HELP!!!!


ORIGINAL: greg zts

but it just seems like Redcat is out of alot of their parts. Most of it is the aluminum upgrades, but those are the ones that i want.

Be carefull with the aluminum. It looks cool but adds weight and also bends. There are certain area's that benefit from aluminum upgrades and others that don't. Aluminium control arms are for show. Keep the the $3.99 plastic one's on and buy an extra set for the parts box. Steering knuckles usually benefit from being upgraded but if you have pivot ball knuckles, these work fine. On my son's Caldera and my HPI MT2 I upgraded them. Both of these models do not have pivot ball and the steering knuckle screws pull right out of the bottom after a few jumps. Anyway, you probably get my point.
