I run a Db01 and its great, i almost beat Andy on the last outdoor run and came 2nd (ok so Woodys dad messed with the results :-)) The only hop ups i run is the slipper (single) front UJ's and TRF aerated dampers which are designed to fit the DB01 with no modifications. I broke my rear lower arm taking a silly jump wrong and the front on a bad flip so out of buying replacements i now have the carbon A&B parts tree and carbon front lower arms.
I run it with yeah racing 20c lipos and the Ezrun 5.5 brushless and its great, and didn't cost the earth and parts and spares a cheap.
I bought the Associated spring set and use 30w oil in the rear and 40 in the front.
The rear diff is now a little grindy as it loosened a little too much and i think the odd ball might be a little flat but if you build them properly and bed them in well they work fine, DONT use super glue to glue the plates on use as stated rubber cement. I use Unibond Extreme you can get from B&Q. It doesnt breakdown with the grease and doesn't crack and become loose under pressure like super glue does
