Hello everybody.

I have an important question.

Which part do you recommended to buy fot maintenance? Because some parts are worn or bent

For example I ussually buy:
- front and rear belt
- front and rear drive shaft
- shocks absorber membranes
- spool adapters

What do you think?

Regards,

None, I would only replace any of those things during a meeting if absolutely necessary.

But I keep spares of all of those things.

Wheel bearings and driveshaft blades as needed. If running the ECS driveshafts, replacement pins.
Those are the common wear items.

The only part I would buy new for every race is tyres :D But at 6*£25 per meeting that is not going to happen for me!

Every time my car has a big hit i always check the screws which bolt the wishbone carriers onto the bulk heads. I also replace these every rebuild as i find they bend a tiny amount very quicklly.
Also i have a few spare hinge pins as these bend.

Wouldnt repalce the belts unless they are worn, Iv never worn out a belt to be fair.
