RE: Help me get started the right way.
if your going to put the fok in the trans you will cure the weakest part of the truck if you plan to do a lot of jumps keep a couple spare control arms around as far as fuel i use 20% blue thunder definitely buy by the gallon if i run allot i can use a gallon in a week it is a little hard on fuel i added a second fuel tank to extend run time i did not like the stock tires at all poor grip and roll over very easy over all i love the truck and associated stands behind it fairly well as far as the fuel line the stock line if fine i still use it never had any issues with shock towers or turnbuckles i have broken a couple control arms in bad wrecks you will like it i do recommend going thru the entire truck and making sure all screws and set bolts are tight before you run it i found several loose i hope this helps
