Yeah, thanks to you guys, I have gotten good advice and ideas. I am sure I am missing some odds n ends parts like the axels and and rear axel mounts but I am not sure if I want to go with the stock redcat ones or find some good aftermarket ones and I just hope I'm not using too much aluminum.
 
That looks like a fun build. I wish I would have built one from scratch instead of buying complete and modding everything. Building one and working on them is most of the fun for me.

Im digging phatcats front/rear shock towers, I just might have to get those instead.

With the rear shock tower it will only work with side mounted pipes or stock pipe
 
i have the front and rear phatcat shocktowers on mine with a jetpro rear mount pipe. you have to do some modifying to the rear tower. i sent him some pics on what i did must be to hard to redo them to fit. but i do like them alot thanks phatcat.

It's not hard to redo them it's just with that pipe you do not have much room to adjust the shocks.

Would be worth the time to maybe do two types one for the rear mounted pipes and the. The ones you already have
