Default Front and rear Hubs

For the front c hubs I am using the 7.5deg Teamline items. The steering knuckles I have changed as the kit ones strip the thread easily where the kingpins screw into them. The upgraded steering knuckles are from 3 racing and are made from alloy, But I did have to file about .8mm off the upper kingpin boss to make them fit into the c hub as they are made for a Lazer zx5. One thing I did do when filing them to size was to make sure they fit well in the c hub without to much play so the shoulder on the king pin will screw tight onto the knuckle and not against the bearing as then you may find the king pins will keep coming undone. The camber links and ball studs on the front and rear are from Team associated, The turn buckles are from an old b4 rtr, being black they don't stand out to much to look out of place.
The steering links and ball studs are kit items, and on fitment to the steering knuckles I have added a m3 nylock nut to eliminate the bump steer.
The rear is kit items apart from the camber links and ball studs
