When building the thrust race for the diff go careful not to over tighten as the washer will shatter, also if you have an M3 TAP it's worth cutting threads into the long step screws for the steering assembly as the heads can shear off before they reach there stop point. If theres anything i can help with let me know.
Thanks very much for the info, still going over the instruction manual so haven't started building yet, thanks for the offer of help! If I get stuck would you mind a few PM's? Do you mean section 14 when you mention the 'thrust race'? There is a bit about over tightening and a warning about damaging a washer?
