Congratulation to your nice FAV. I have note that you had the same problems with the driver arms as i had already with my two FAV`s. The Bonnet is to loong for the hands...

very nice job so far buddy, still cleaning my fav runner from it's beach trip couple of weeks ago.... sand really do's get everywhere lol!! being a vintage still has the old hex dog-bones so getting the sand all out was a priority. Ps mine did end up in the sea (not by choice) but has lived to tell the tale, run really well on sand though so looking forward to some great off road shots with that motor .. good idea with the gears mate nice work

Thanks mongoose1983 , They are not to bad , But it will have to do with this runner .
I'm more worryed about the cheap front suspension , alot of bounce .

Re: front susp. Parma used to do small hydraulic shocks for the Grasshopper & Hornet buggies. They do fit the FAV, and that changes the suspension dramatically. I know because I have them on mine. I believe you might be able to find a used pair.

Thanks Mr duke . @ mongoose1983 Ok i will look for some & i was thinking mini T shocks ?. I do have some of them i may size up . Even that the shock shaft maybe to thin .
