The car is so easy to work on
The things I have found which need attention are
The shocks
The rears have the saggy arse syndrome
After stripping them I did find 2 of the 4 piston screws were not locktite'd and all the pistons had to be smoothed where they had been removed from the tree.
They still had small protrusions on them.
They are a bit better with thicker oil and the adjusters wound almost all the way down
Need some heavier springs soon
Servo's
I replaced the problematic throttle servo right away and installed the stock steering servo into its position
I have done the throttle brace mod to stop the flex in the throttle servo tray when the brakes are applied.
