For the build, my shocks came pre-built but it's definately worth just checking the screw that holds the piston onto the shock shaft as one of mine came off inside the shock. Other than that just build as per the instructions.
And yes the harder yellow springs are probably the way to go for Astro, and might be worth considering the roll bars.
Not seen or heard of problems with the kit shell being 'weak' but I suppose it depends what you do with it. If you wanted to change, the Flotek would be the way to go.
I would recommend a 550 for a 4wd SC. A 540 will work fine, just keep an eye on the temperature.

Just finished building the thing....
Jeeeeezzzzzzz!!!! they are big.....
now wonder you are all saying 550's are recommended..... anything less is making me feel like it might end up like a milk float.....
I am going to try a 540 and my speedo, however i think a 550 and RX8 is going to be a near term investment.....
Oh boy this looks like its going to be fun fun fun!!!
