For overnight stuff RCHobbies in NSW is good, prices are a lot better than local hobby shops & they carry pretty much everything you'll need. More expensive than EBay or ordering from the US, but not by a huge amount & you can get your stuff overnight for $10.5 freight.
Handy when you bust something & wanna get back out & play.
Got me a set of Proline badlands today for $88.50 to my door.

Just got the Traxxas brace, I was gonna make one, but for something like $12 why bother!
Yeah, if I had rpm arms already I'd have to debate the true track rear, but I've just got beat up stockers so it's a no brainer - we bash pretty hard, rear wheel alignment is always getting knocked out of whack & it's a PITA to set it up. True track is fit & forget, just camber adjustment to be done & that doesn't move much.
Had to straighten a front pushrod again this morning, bent 1 or the other 4 times now, looking forward to the alloy ones!
I got some alloy toe links for the front as well, going to be pulling a bunch of weight out of it & gearing it up for more top end.

whats the part number on the brace?
and yeh I'm knocking my alignment out all the time. but the thing i keep thinking is that its the give way point, with trutrack is it going to break or what else is going to move or brake in its place...

The brace is TRA5361
I'm hoping all the rpm stuff & the alloy pushrods etc will mean nothing breaks.........
Unless I hit something real hard, which I do tend to do LOL.
Next in line I would think would be the inner arm pins and/or their mounts, but I reckon it'd take a BIG hit to break that stuff.
