Well I think that's it for now. I was going to mount some nerf bars but I noticed the Associated SC8 doesn't run any special nerf bars, just the regular buggy mud guards. I changed out the oil to 50wt all around, added heavier springs and the piggyback shock reservoirs. I also tried on some black rims, what do you think?
