Hello all, Thanks you for the advice about what I can run in the bosscat, sorry I haven`t posted a thank you sooner, I got well and truly sucked into reading about all the new stuff you can get, plus hunting out spares!!

so far I`m trying to upgrade part of the drivetrain can take a bit more grunt. I`ve got decent bearing to replace the oilite, hopefully as I don`t have a pro diff that will help a bit.

But unfortunatley cat3k is right, the bosscat sport doesn`t have a slipper! And as I can't find one with a lay shaft to buy anywhere. As I can`t buy one I`m now planning to make one, from looking at the manual I should be able to turn one up + a layshaft. anyone know what the original was made from? (ali, steel, titanium! think titanium could be over kill) also has anyone tried this before, if so any advice? can post pics of the process if anyone is interested.

Other new bits so far, are new body + undertray (got work out a good paint scheme now!), wheels and tyres. Looking for spares if anyone has any, It would be good to get some spare belts, just incase I destroys them! does anywhere do replacements?

one final question what shocks and springs would be good to replace the original ones?

As you can probably guess my small budget has gone out the window.

Once again thank you all so much for the help

Cheers

Andy
