The battle continues...axle anxiety - Pro-Line Pro2 SCT (Kake)

Pro-Line Pro2 Speed Run Car (Kake)

I hope this configuration works. I again had to drop some more cash on parts. They should arrive next week, I hate waiting....grrr!!!

Changes so far:

Looking at the condition of my rear hub carriers and front steering blocks I can clearly see the toll speed running (and crashing) has taken on Kake. I always thought that aluminum parts were mostly for show, but in the case of steering parts and rear uprights, they are required. I received the M6 steering blocks from Tekno yesterday, but upon looking at their site FAQ section, i read that the X-01 is "a direct replacement for ours". So X-01 aluminum steering blocks it is! Looking at the Tekno steering blocks I realized that the Pro2 caster blocks will be way too small for the X-01 steering blocks, so now I have the X-01 aluminum caster blocks on order as well.

Current proposed configuration--->
