I tore up my AD2 again and bought a Aluminum Rear Pivot Block for it...However I hear that doing a hop-ups like that will stress and break other things...anyone have suggestions as to what else would be a good thing to hop up while I am at it to avoid more down time???

Or the correct way to go about beefin up the truck so it can take more abuse??:ponder2:
 
If you’re out bashing, replace it with stock parts and let them brake. If you feel you want to beef it up, beef up the expensive parts and let the cheap ones brake instead.

If you’re racing, beef up anything that brakes. If it’s broken you won’t make it across the finish line.
 
Get an RPM bumper. It will save your front arms more times than you can count.

Leave the front pivot/suspension stock, I never had problems other than snapping an occasional arm or popping off a ball end. Maybe replace ball ends with RPM.

I'd change the rear pivot block to al. Also, replace the main diff gear with an RRP aluminum diff gear and the diff adjustment nut (mini-locknut) with this: http://www.1hg.com/home/Indexnf.htm If you can actually find one...
