suggestion...replace all of the bushings with bearings...bushings will wear out and cause a lot of play in steering components...if you plan on drifting on a layout lock the rear diff or get a solid spool and put a front one way in it...this will make her switch back and forth beautifully...

...enjoy your slider!

 I would also add an aluminium centre shaft and cups as the tamiya plastic centre shaft is  just not up to it.
I have 2 degree toe in rear alloy  uprights/knuckles, and  solid diff in the back  with matching unis , and a front one way with alloy steering knuckles and unis. The steering bellcranks are also worth upgrading to a ballraced alloy unit.
Just be careful when getting upgrades to make sure they will all work together as there are many makers of upgrade parts for this car. If you stick to the one brand you should be ok, just do some research before buying.  3racing and Yeah racing have thousands of parts for this car to name two  aftermarket brands
.
