XDD, I have broke my stock rear suspension plate a while ago and replaced it with the anodized aluminum. When I break a part that is offered in the aluminum I usually buy it. The only thing I have to go yet is the front shock tower. I can tell a big difference in going with the aluminum. Just about every time I went out bashing I was breaking something... not anymore. I haven't broke a CV, but used to loose pins every now and then, heat shrink has taken care of that problem. I haven't stripped the inside of the rear wheels, but I have put some hairline cracks in the stock front rims.

Doogie, I will have to give Hobbycampus a try.

On another note, I have noticed that the 3/16 nylon insert hex nuts for securing the wheels onto the axles are really uncommon. I have wanted to dress them up by going to a blue anodized aluminum but haven't had any luck locating any.

I am going to be upgrading my tank to the RC10GT fairly soon, I hate cleaning the fuel spray, it really attracts the dirt.

Evaderstman, I went to the head site and they do look like they would run cooler, more fins, more surface area. They show one for the O.S. 18TM right now, do you know if it will work on the 0.S. 18CVR?
