Yeh that's the one.

Pinion housing? Take the anti roll bars off if your going to pay and play days. Makes it more capable... But with more body roll on the road. Which is a downside if its a daily

Ahhh

Spose you gotta keep him happy at this stage

Now then Drizz, tell me, they look like the Insa Super Special Tracks?

If so, what you reckon? Are they 33x12.5x15?

Cheers

I need to keep him sweet as theyres the roll cage and the body to weld up yet......

They are yes, being the 'Supers' mean theyre new and not remould.
Initially when they arrived i was very disappointed as i was told they were identical to the remoulds which you can clearly see theyre not.
BUT....

Upon usage off road they are very capable. Probably not as good as the remoulds due to the difference in sidewall tread but still very very good....
