Let me tell you, upgrading this Slash is a royal PITA!!! Everytime I get something, I have to modify it to work. Now, I don't mind modding, but when you get something that is SUPPOSED to fit, I think it should fit, no?

Latest issue: I got the big bore shocks (#2660 and #2662) just to find that the spring retainers are too small. Let me remind you; these are listed as a Slash option part. The springs "kinda" fit, but they overhang the retainers a bit. So, I have to go get the Slash retainers. Then, the diameter of the "big bore" shocks are smaller than the stock Slash shocks, so even when I get new retainers, I have to find some way to take up the slop on the top retainer. Aggg!
