Basics below. I've fine tuned it since this setup. Diffs: 20k/15k/7k Shocks I started with the 1.3 pistons front and rear and added six 0.8mm holes to each piston. I opened up one of the 1.3 holds to 1.4. It has 50/45 wt. It feels planted compared to the stock pistons which are over damped in my opinion. I may go up 5 wt ft/rr as it feels a little light. - Going to the light springs in the back helps add a little rear bite on acceleration. Gearing: 16/52 Sway bars: Front (yellow), Rear (green) Bruggy body and race tires/wheels Remove center brace, no issues with this. Remove rear side chassis braces to add rear traction/flex
