Default ARTR's Hardware?

Ok - looking over the specs for the ARTR on Axial's site, I notice that the Kit is noted as having "all steel hardware" and neither the ARTR or RTR have this... are the nuts and bolts plastic? Or what do they mean by hardware? Or maybe it's a bit too late to be reading, I don't know. Some one explain this too a drunk and tired man.

well a buddy of mine got the rtr and it had metal screws but the nuts were plastic instead of being nylock metal nuts. If thats a big deal you can buy nylocks pretty cheap.

Also the Flanged balls are different. The kit has metal ones and the ARTR has plastic ones.

Nuts:
Kit: AXA1053
ARTR: AX80018

Flanged balls:
Kit: AXA1331
ARTR: AX80018

Exactly. I dont think either will be a problem, but I swapped my plastic nuts out for 3mm locknuts just for longevity.

IMO for the price they charge for these ax10's they should have way better hardware!

Full hex machine thread hardware would have been nice, but an ARTR truck with some "hop-ups" for $230 isnt bad. Its cheaper than most "race" kits, and you still have to build those.
