Default Cat sx2 latest batch ?

Hi
Just building up my cat just a few questions.
What would be the best spares to have wishbones c hubs etc what else,dont want to drive miles with no spares.

Did schumacher change the diff halfs as mine are black as well as the diff pulleys,i have only seen white ones are they old stock?

On the wishbones are med flex the ones to get?
Thanks everybody


On the alloy steering conversion there is a small graphite part can you get that seperate if so any one know the part no

Thanks

Make sure you've got a front shock mount, wishbones, inner hinge pins, and a set of the inner wishbone mounts. Thats the only parts i have broken so far.

Stegger front brace will toughen up the front end considerably.

Since having the brace I've only ever broken wishbones & wing mount 'bands'.

If you need any bits get in touch - I broke down a Cat (SX1) for spares recently. Got most of it left still...

Default SPARES

front end spares is a must. the rocket shaped graphite part for steering, is (U3446). I also recomend the gear idler upgrade, ive only been racing for 6 months (SX2) and had to replace the standard idler twice, this is because the bearings have broke and all little bearings get stuck in the gears and chews them up.Havent raced yet with upgrade as only just fitted it. Also a spare diff and belts,not cheep, but if you are at the races and one gets a pebble or a screw in the housing you are bound to chew it up. What i did when i got the cat was looked out on ebay or oople for people selling second hand or new parts at a good price.hope this helps you and good luck.
