Beautiful build, I love the all RPM parts, the rear upgrade carriers with the rpm arms really ties it all together better than standard carriers with aluminum arms.
How long are the chassis standoffs?
I'm wondering if you could cut the socket off of the end of a long shank rpm ball cup to make some standoffs with the RPM logo on them? You can never have too many rpm logos on one build :lol:

the standoffs are 1.0" long. I think the square parts of the long shank ballends are a bit shorter but a good idea none the less.

Awesome build Jim as usual, I also vote for the black arms, the car is much more harmonious like that. Where do you find all those shock collars, I would kill just to see a set for sale...

Those shock collars are expensive when you do find them. I think I paid $40 for the last set I found on ebay. This set of dampers came from my worlds buggy. I replaced them with some HG clearbodies and HG aluminum collars

Love all the C.C. parts!

Are those screws included with the Composite Craft steering kit the same length as the original AE screws?

Those could be original AE screws. it would be nice if they were a bit shorter.
