The option buckles are £22 a pair meaning it would cost £66 to go titanium tbh this is a joke if thats right! What other options are there out there? Does anyone else do buckles for thr dex410? Thanks

Havent really heard of people having issues with the stock turnbuckles. Are you just wanting to save weight?

I've just fitted Lunsford TitaniumTurnbuckles 1.75 inch ($15.99 for a pack of four, so two packs (two spare) plus post from Losi Warehouse is circa £26.

I also fitted the short and long Associated Titanium T5 ball studs and RPM long heavy duty ball cups.

Ran for the first time last night at Leyland - really pleased.
