Hey Mike, are those GT2 steering hubs of a GPM part? Will GT2 front and back hubs work with those arms??

gt2 probably wont fit hinge pin.. they are more along the lines of these.

the rear hubs i remembered having to sand a bit off to make them fit, belt sander does a good job

I figured that much, just was looking to go for some polished aluminum or silver finish suspension parts now that I decided to get some tecnacrafts wheels for my tuber project.

I could alway strip the blue anodizing off, but I've tried it with a gold tub once with over cleaner and it didn't turn out very good, especially in the hard to get at spots.

caustic soda i used to strip these, worked down to bare metal.

Beautiful rail.I think I read some where in the thread you don't plan on running it.I have a car i don't want to run because it is mint.But, Take it to the sand Just one time to get some sweet pix.

What is the cage made from? I know the crawler guys sometimes use brake line but is that too soft for this application?
