Default RE: monster pirate hop-ups

CNC steering slider/Ackerman is nice to have w/bearings
I bought an extra hyper7 pro steering linkage set up on ebay and installed all the turnbuckles, etc.
works way nicer for set up tuning adjustments

What are you intending to do, race or just bash?
If you want just WOT top end speed then the 086 pipe will help a lot over that POS pipe that comes with it. I run a more torque pipe on mine, beacuse I want more bottom end,I raced it on a short technical track

I'd agree that the 2 speed is a little finicky, and if you get it, get the steel gears, If you run the plastic gears any little change in the mesh will strip that gear out fast.
