Check for bolts being bent on the front end. Any front end collisions normally end up with the bolts being bent slightly which totaly changes the front end setup. Nortech do them as spares. Northy on here.

As Chris says, check the screws.

Thats it really.... the diffs are awesome, the shocks are awesome (once they have Nortech whitie O'ring seals in them), and the bearings are awesome. The car is extremely low maintenance..... even the 24hr car needs very little maintenance after its marathon!

All it needs is a rear belt after we abused it with the freeze spray on the motor! The outer rubber part is cracked, the internal fibres are fine - it still works!

The driveshafts, outdrives and bearings are all like new!
