From what I've seen on Tamiyas:

Ball cups and ballstuds

Rear diff (if not upgraded, possibly still)

Shock caps (if not upgraded)

Front shock tower (Atomic carbon do a great one)

Tools wise - whatever you need to build/maintain the car. Screwdrivers/Hex drivers, Wrenches, Pliers etc.

ok, well im upgrading the shocks, front shock tower, and shock base... so, ill buy some ballstuds, and a diff thing.. ok, do you know were i can find 2 decent lipo batterys, for around 120 (for both)

I've never had a problem will ball cups or ball studs on the Durga, and I've never broken a shock tower either (not for want of trying...)
