you convinced me to order the kit but what else do I need?
After my recent thread on should I buy the engine or the kit and being told in no uncertain terms to buy the kit, i dont know what else i need.
So i plan to buy the following
MK Indy R Deluxe Kit
Rose Jointed Chassis
Fuel Tank
Fuel Tank Straps
Powder Coating
going through the list of additional parts im confused as to what else I should/Need to order at the same time.
can anyone tell me other than sierra parts what I should get at the same time?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
Sierra steering rack, front uprights, prop and streering down link (can't remeber correct name) all need modification by MK.. So you will
probably want to sort this at the same time as kit collection if you are not down the road from MK..

all your suspension wishbones? front and rear uprights/hubs that way you can get to rolling chassis pretty quick
i should have checked up to see what the kit included
as said above, rack, and front uprights

so does that mean your 2 hours north of MK or south ?
If your 2 north that means your North East based?
Looking forward to seeing your blog develop.

cosider buting the full spec kit with wishbones, shockers etc can be a substantial saving. They also do a reverse if your goung Bike engined

Thanks
