All the metals are about the same in strength and quality. And the everything BUT the FLM had a factory fit. So next time why dont you just keep your sour comments to yourself! THANKS

Hmmm? I'm the peace maker round these parts. I try to see both sides so everybody gets along.
Welcome to RCM. Lots of great brushless knowledge here. Anything thats been tried has been tried here. Including integy parts, which are known to
not be made of "metals of the same strength" as you assumed. Also integy shocks are notoriously bad for leaks.
FLM has great customer service and support. Jamie(the owner) is a good guy and RC-Moonster Mike carries the full fastlane line. Either of them would have straightened you out had you stuck with it and allowed them to.
FLM parts sometimes have fitment issues, but they have been proven time and time again to be the strongest parts out there, made of much highher quality aluminum than integy.
It's a cool looking rig, but several have been done here, and they haven't worked out well. Suicideneil wasn't bashing you, he is speaking from experience, and was trying to help you.
If you want a pretty shelf queen then keep doing what you're doing with all that worthless bling. If you want to make a bulletproof racer or basher then listen to the expertss here instead of arguing with them.
Plus Neil's british so all bets are off. He's high on kippers or something
