    So all the aluminum parts were included with the kit? That's pretty badass.

    Buddy of mine bought the level 3 lift kit for his dingo, after he read about it he decided not to use it and gave it to me. I stuck it on my rtr scx10, no binding anywhere, seems to be ok :notsure:.

    Its not jacked all the way up but I think it made for some bigger tires :cool:
