Lose the skids, don't need them. Get the Max shocks (under $20.00 on e-bay for all four) and your good.

Yeah, ditch the skids. They'll hurt you more than help you. Those axle cases can take a beating; no skids necessary. Spend the $28 bucks on skids for something more worthwhile...

I dont think you need heavy duty steering rods. I would take that off the list, but see what other people say

Personally, I like the Tracer conversion kit. But I am surprised that people aren't jumping all over the fact that it uses the stock tranny.
