Thanks I'll check it out. Aaron normally helps me out mostly, but even $40 is a lot for 6 turnbuckles, maybe his store can do them cheaper.

2 - 1 3/8" Punisher Turnbuckles (Rear Camber)
4 - 1 5/8" Punisher Turnbuckles (Front Camber & Steering)
1 - 3 1/4" Off-set Punisher Turnbuckle
How much are they Aaron? I don't need the long steering linkage, I have a few spare of them already :D
If there still there. Probably around $20. The steering link is just part of the kit

As long as you know the correct size, just search eBay and buy packs individually,............. using this Lunsford Punisher 1 7/8" set as an example:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lunsford-Punisher-Plus-3mm-x-1-7-8-Titanium-Turnbuckles-w-Ball-Cups-LNS1068-/231126610960?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35d0383410#ht_3957wt_746

$2.99 shipping from the US to the UK can't be beat! :wink:

So Aaron has kindly hooked me up with some Lunsford turnbuckles, I've also ordered some Lunsford titanium king pins - didnt know they did them! and I am now thinking of going all out and getting the Lunsford screw kit to match the other shiny parts on the car, would do yo think people? Cool or too much of an expense/extravagance :?:

Its not cheap by any stretch, but might just be worth it for the bling factor!

Thinking about it, it would look damn nice on my XXT-CR G+ too 8)
