Spares - what to carry?
 

Just looking to see if there is anything that is commonly needed for an SV2.

I know from running the SV a few years ago these cars are solid, however just thought to ask before putting an order in.

Front Bulkhead. Think the SVR bulkhead is beefed up, U4094.

Definitely agree on the front bulkhead, get a few of the SVR type and keep in stock. I've broken a couple of hubs after clipping the piping hard so that's another part id recommend. I've managed to rip the turnbuckle out of the front caster blocks also, I bit the bullet in the end and got some aluminium ones which have been great.

All in all the car is fairly tough but I would say these are the weak points.

Also, front upper outer link ball end. I have had one split. Svr ones are also beefed up.

Front yokes get ally ones
Front steering arms get ally ones
Front arms
And never broke on sv2 but have on sx turn buckles
And spurs
Thats about it i have broke and they are the only spares i keep

Also Paul

If you are going to run an alloy servo horn get a spare steering rack

Front bulkhead - is that the small peice on the front or the full bulkhead that attaches to the chassis?

Only thing i have broke on the car is the castor block,but now on ali ones,i would carry the screws that hold the wheels on

The part the front shock tower attaches to m8
