That sounds like what HSP designers did when they came up with the aluminum shock mounts. They are actually weaker than the plastic ones.That makes sense, but I generally am referring to actual aftermarket support when I make that statement. An RC may have a hundred available option parts, simply because the engineers were bored, and the RC can still be a pile of crap. But if there is a ton of aftermarket stuff for it, it shows a lot of people like it, and it's probably worth a go. That's just how I look at it all.
I run my Hunter quite often at that park, and so far i have, in over a year, only blew a front bearing, and had the screws pull out of the front bumper because the ones i used when i put it back on were the wrong ones and too short. You made me curious though, so i started looking, and noone anywhere makes DHK upgrade parts, probably because there isnt much of a need for them, and stock parts, if you do need them, are super cheap. I just finished setting it up with belted tires (i frankensteined it, and turned it into a pseudo monster truggy, using a mix of Hunter and Raz-R parts, with a JLB Cheetah body), so i can run it in the snow this winter on 3S, just like last year.There is not a single stock kit on this planet that you can bash at a skate park that isnt going to break something at least every second or third trip. I get that youd rather keep replacing broken parts with stock one but you're in the minority here. Most people prefer to rebuild their rigs stronger when they break so they dont break as often.
