i put in 3r steering hubs, motor mount, cf antenna mount (secures the antenna really good), x speed motor, united s42s, and deans ultra plugs.....
The ST with its added ground clearance it rips around the lawn with no problems.....My son is having a lot of fun with it.

I used to do this when I worked in SF - I got $50 a day when traveling. I eat organic, so I'd pack half a suitcase of edibles and spend lunches walking, dinners drinking, and still bring home extra $.
The ST is a bargain when you consider in includes everything that the buggy has, plus it includes shocks (Kyosho shocks are primo - they're worth $40+), and bearings. I'd still get the knuckles (did Kyosho re-design this weak point??) & grease the center diff - but other than that, it doesn't need anything.
Now all I have to do is e-mail this to my wife to see if she concurs.
