Hey Basketti, Sorry I did not answer your questions. The knuckles I have are from RCXSHOP and they say thier made by Associated. They look good but the bearing size is stock. About the gears, Mike is getting them for me and I don't know witch ones he's getting. You said you used locktight, What # and color? I got plastic ball cups. Will locktight work on them? I have msr4 shocks, Don't know the differance between 4"s and 5"s. As for the brushless motor. I am like you, I like long runtimes but I like lots of power so I think I will get a ''hotter 8xl or 7xl'' and run16 cells and later get LiPo's and have plenty of runtime and power. I put the shocks back together and they look great. Thank you all for your help.

the locktight i used is blue locktight, i didnt know they have #'s. I've only heard that theres blue locktight and red locktight, and the red one is REALLY hard to undo so its best to use blue. If you have plastic ball cups you wouldnt need locktight i think, i use the stock ball cups. I cant make up my mind on which motor i'll get, i'll probably end up getting the 8xl cause its right in the middle lol. what weight oil did you end up putting in the shocks?
