front gearbox top & spare crash pins
get a stainless steering link if you have the carbon one (or modify the steering like i did)
driveshaft caps
buy the "race spares" set from t.tech too - good value and enough spares for you too.
I have:
front gearbox tops
crash pins
front carbon plate
front wishbones (top and bottom)
front hubs
various washers & ball joint ends
drive shaft caps
various ballraces
Thats seems to be enough, as possibly with the exception of the front gearbox top, everything else is a strong as you would wish it to be.

drive pins are also a good thing to have , they wear fast (but that's what they have to do!) a spare spur gear  |

because one of the original X10 ones has cracked around the area drilled to sit on the battery post. It will eventually break, and when it does, I can just pop on one of the new ones, which, for information only is not engraved with the X10 logo.....  SO i might swap them early to preserve the original bars, come to think of it. |

What are "Crash pins"? Forrest the small pins that go into the front gearbox lugs, when you crash, the gearboxtop can/will brake and the pin will be somewhere at the track and you don't want to search it I guess |

Silversnow, what part of the world are you from.. if you are on our side of the pond (North America) then click this link and you can order them right way.. www.dtcrc.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=49If you are over in Europe or that geneneral area, then you have to order from TTECH and we have crash pins too.. we are actually thinking of including the crashpins in our version of the spares pack.. but we have not done it yet... Enjoy. |

I am from North America. dose DTCRC.com have the new upgraded parts? because I can't seem to find them, since I need a few of those to.
Thanks for you help, Forrest
Oh, I guess I found them, but how do know if the front gearbox top is the new one or the old?
