Default Ok..help needed please

I am purchasing a Tamiya King Tiger and am concerned about where to get upgrades (idler fix, gear box support, etc) here in USA.
Any suggestions where to purchase here to avoid the week dollar vs Euro and high shipping and VAT tax?

Anyone have any to sell here that they are not using?
Also, is the schumo idler kit (KT0014A and KT0039) a good option or the Daryls better?
Any furhter suggestions on upgrades and where to purchase would be very helpful
I have been searching and coming up with alot of dead links, closed stores, and VERY expensive shipping/tax etc....
Thanks fellow Tankers,

If you are looking for stock Tamiya replacement parts, check into the AAF Museum in Danville Va. They have just about anything you will need in stock parts and the girls are super great on the service.
