There is an extender included for the rear body mount so the older bodies wil fit, the bodies that fit the 511/502 are a direct fit to the 503, there just is a bigger gap between the body and the rear shock tower.

Proline Bulldog also fits on it straight away, the phantom is designed to go on the longer car so should fit without any gaps.

The TRF501 body also fits but is a bit tight around the motor.

There are turnbuckles included but I haven't driven the car yet so I don't know how strong they are.
So maybe a set titanium turnbuckles.
On most places the silver ballstuds are included, which have never been the strongest or most hard wearing, so you might want some bags of the hardened ball studs.

And maybe the rear hubs, or put a longer ballstud in as the original is a quite short one that is then also fitted on a spacer.

For the rear there is a set of 12mm hexes included with the kit, fronts are the usual 10mm.
