I haven't seen any carbon fiber for it yet either.. are you racing it??

I do have the upgraded shock towers.. but I have not yet installed them.

What body do you use on your mayhem?? I am still using the stocker of course.. but I want a better looking body.

I was told by another member and confirmed by the LHS that the aluminum diff cases from the LST2 are compatible.

I used to run the Crowd Pleazer 9.5 on my old Mayhem. It's a little taller, but it fits. The Sportwerks Agitator body isn't too bad either.

My buddy has bent a shock shaft, broken a lower a-arm (twice), and had a wheel nut come loose, which caused the two hub bearings to blow (don't ask me how), and ruined the threads on the axle.

I've put about 4 gallons on mine. The clutch is a goner, the clutch bearings were ruined, the front shocks leaking all the time, and had lots of worn out tires. It's a good buggy and handles real well when the tires and shocks are good. Oh, a rear main bearing (the one that supports the cup going to the rear wheels) died. Isn't that wierd?
