Oh, While I remember... Does this roll cage get in the way of the gear cover?

Do what I do use this converter, http://www.fieba.net/index.htm
O-yea, Look on E-bay you can find Good Deals on NEW LST Parts or the Truck itself.(e-bay has Canadian prices)

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

Cool, That'll Help!

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

Actually, I dont think That'll be accurate, the US prices are usually almost 2x as much.

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

The Rate changes everyDay, and the Canadian money is worth a Lot More now-a days.

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

I know but when it comes to buying things. for axample, a nitro X-C is about $240 US, and twice as much Canadian. But when I cashed in the $30 US cheque, it only came to about $36 [:o]

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

And it was a $40 rebate from bestbuy so i got ripped off by $4.

Its more like 740-800 (790 at my LHS)

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

Did you include the outragous tax those too the North must pay? I paid $500 + 7.25% sales tax for my brand new at a local hobby shop, so deals can be had if you take the time too shop around. But those up north are getting ripped off.

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

Nope. Didn't include that.

That is one heck of a list! Get the sway bars, Diff cases, skip the Aluminum arms and get RPM Arms, and get the failsafe. On everything else, see if you really need/want it after you get into the truck and drive it for a few weeks. If you think you need something stronger for any given part, break the stock one, first - then get stronger replacements. It sounds like a few hundred $$ of overkill to me.

RE: LST Part Pricing
 

Yea I know, that was just a list of mostly possibilities that I may want later on, Its actually longer now! But Ill get what I need as I go, and RPM arms because theyre like 1/3 the price of alum. But I's d like aluminum C-carriers, hubs, and bulkhead, but thatll be quite alot right there.

Oh, its not just the taxes (14% total here) its that the products cost almost 2x as much even though the US to canadian conversion is much less.
