To Me Aluminum and steel Look Amazing on these 5B style Buggies.

A bit $Pricey& but heck we only live once right.

Im guessing after replacing Most of the Plastic parts with Aluminum and steel its gotta be adding a significant amount of extra weight to the Buggy.

O well Im gonna order a low gear set to give her a little extra off the line grunt and Ive got another 36cc head coming in so I can start porting the intake and exhaust.
Any advise or tips on how much to take off would be appreciated.

As far as suspension arms, I have the heavy duty nylon from RPM Racing. They also come with a life time warranty.
