Greetings everybody,
Beginning of this year I've bought an B4FT and an X6 after 18 years of absence from the RC world.
I've come to the conclusion that the X6 is the one I like the most so I'm thinking of upgrading the fragile front.
First up , the front shock tower on which I have decided
- K Factory B4 Carbon Front Shock Tower (K1512)
+ the DMS Partz Carbon fibre replacement front shock tower for
K Factory mounts (DMS135)
This way I would have a spare one
.
To strenghten the front of the X6 I was thinking about upgrading to the following parts but I cannot figure out which ones would be the best option.
Next bulkheads :
- Ghea Racing brass bulkhead
(GHEA2055)
- Thrishbits brass bulkhead

- K Factory alu bulkhead (K1505)

- Yeah Racing alloy bulkhead (AB4-019BU) http://www.yeahracing.com/catalog/ab...t4-p-1426.html
Obviously there is the difference in weight and quality of material but also the price, i'm a bit lost on that one 
Same puzzle for the steering rack :

My goal is to add weight to the front and strenghten it, please give me your feedback, it is very much appreciated.
Thanks,
