Yes forgot to mention the diff balls. Do them at first strip down.
That said both my cars have the stock balls in and no problems yet, but then again I do build my cars more like people would expect somebody to build a satalite than a model car and the extra care and time (There is nearly 60 hours invested in building the Lazer for example ... everything measured, everything test assembled, checked and only then finally assembled ............ I will not tollerate a car failing on me!!!)
If you can please post up a picture of the shock tower mounts so we can tell you if you have the lastest ones or not .. on the car will be fine!
Only other thing I can think off is the driveshafts ... if your going to put lots of load throught them (powerful brushless or lots of hard on power landings) it might be worth getting the normal kit CVD style shafts. No point until you know if they are going to wear or not though as they will be fine with milder motors and general use.
If you do go down that route it is worth considering the SP upgrade pack as it's about the same price as 2 pairs of driveshafts and brings the rest of the suspension up to the latest spec.
Enjoy the car.
