I like getting up grades my baja 5t has most things pimped out ......now I want decent front hubs
I had King Motor alloy hubs on my previous Baja and they took an absolute beating. I rolled it, cartwheeled it, crashed into dirt and even a couple concrete walls. I've broken the A arms, steering rods, steering servo, even bent the alloy servo saver assembly from crashes, but the hubs never took any damage. I'd say they're pretty damn good. What do you have against Chinese made stuff? Just don't buy the cheap no name casted crap. You get what you pay for, and even Chinese made stuff has high end which can be expensive. I use FID on my Losi 5ive and DBXL, and their parts are top notch and made in china.
I run plastic hubs on my current Baja now, just haven't bothered to upgrade them as it's my beater rig. I'd rather spend money and throw more alloy at my 5ive. Plus, I've converted the Baja to a "T" version, it likes to spend a lot of time on it's roof. I figure the parts are better off being plastic anyways.
