Default Bandai suspension upgrade question

For those who have bought the Kenny Kong suspension upgrades, are they worth it? Do they really (visibly) flex enough for performance? or is it best to save the money and put it into the track upgrades instead?

Thx as always,

Dave

Hey Dave, Invest in the Tracks and Idlers. I have A set of the suspension upgrade and they are absolutly worthless unless Modified, And that would still be questionable. Dont throw your Money away.

I bought 2 sets of suspension upgrade for my Bandai tanks. They worked quite well except that the travel of the 2 arms within each bogie are very small. Overall they live up to
my expectation. There are certain improvement in the performance after new suspensions are installed. My only complaint is that the shaft of each bogie is too thin, I have to apply excessive epoxy to fill the gap.
