It's all in good jest. I'd assume 21bb feels about the same.

So back on topic.... looking at a few parts. Need a set of bearing inserts for the one rear housing. Are the MOD inserts really worth it? The factory inserts are all of $11.00 with bearings would bring the cost to a whooping $13.00, I may be wrong but haven't seen tons of issues with the stock inserts, but at the same time. I'd rather spend the money once and be done with it for a wile, even if it means having to wait a bit to get them.

Now the inserts for the tlr and 5iveT are different. Ive never checked my tlr inserts but Doug has had issues with his. I've never noticed anything wrong w mine on my L5b

Hmm, thought they were the same for both....
Guess I'll save up and get a set of them. For what the pinion and ring gear cost, this seems like cheap insurance.

I'll make a list this afternoon. I just won a tank with brackets on ebay for cheap. Got the steering uprights, as well. I saw shocks were up, but the guy had them priced about $20.00 cheaper then irp shocks. So I think ima let them go for now.

Bidding on a set right now.....
The set for the dbxl cost me $180.00 new take offs. For 4 fronts.
So here's the list knocked a few bits off of it. Waiting to see how a fair on the shocks, I'm topped out at $35.00 each plus shipping. Anymore than that and I'm back in irc range again.
F/R shocks
F/R arms/uprights/spindles
Rear bumper
Cage
Body
Hinge pins
F/R center axles and boots
F/R axles and boots
Clutch bell and pinion
Throttle/brake linkages
St/Th servos
F/R sway bars
I got a fuel tank and mounts, and the steering uprights in the mail, from evilbay.
Bob's getting back to me on a few bits as well.

Alright boys, I got my ebay on, scored a pinion for the rear diff, a complete battery tray, and one rear shock. Got out bid on the other 3 fricken shocks. ?. But that shortened up the list a bit more.
