Glad to hear you went with the LSP! I didn't end up selling mine, and now I'm good to go for race season. Honestly, I don't see you breaking alot of parts unless you end up really smacking the thing around. I stocked up on hinge pins, a hardened diff gear rebuild kit, and a shock kit.

I ran Hot Bodies buggies for the last 2-3 years and never really consumed parts.

I did just stock up on some parts the last week or so because there are a few of these things being parted out C H E A P on Ebay...I assume some of these guys found these for sale super cheap like you did! I scored a pair of front billet knuckles and a set ( four ) of shocks for $55 shipped FOR EVERYTHING!
