I use the King headz braces only because I was worried the stock Kyosho brace might pop off (held on with a large ballend) and so far they are working great. So don't worry about the flex, it is a good thing.
Great that you chimed in Shark. I just ordered the rear Kingheadz brace and rear mount from Amain since Kingheadz is so slow in replying to my question asking them if they ship to a military address. I was certainly worried about the flex (this is my first "real" truggy) but felt reassured now.

What's your current diff oil and suspension setup? Thanks again.


rschoi_75, we built that track inside the navy base here in Yokosuka Japan last year. The background is the mouth of Tokyo Bay and it gets windy and cold especially now.
