K1 aero spares

[Mullan84]

What spares should I get first.
Should I get wishbones, driveshafts etc
Or should I buy more or less every spare?

Which car for?
They all have different weak links.
And different lists of useful spares.....

It's for a K1 aero

Ok. Can't help you there.
Thought you might have ended up with a 410 after your earlier posts!

Might be worth editing your first post and the thread title to something like "what spares for K1 Aero" so you get a little more passing interest!

Shock towers, belts and wishbones to start with as the car is pretty strong, maybe look at the alloy front and rear wishbone hanger if it hasn't got them fitted and alloy front and rear shock mounts.

What are the last 2 things you mentioned?

there are little black plastic blocks that hold the wishbones on - the fronts are the weak point - if you leave them as kit they will break before a wishbone so get some spares of those also rear belt will wear. only other thing i broke is front shock tower but that was a big crash.

Do they have a certain name?

Alloy ones are
U3304 rear
U3556 front

Kit plastics are
U4182

The alloy front appears to give 10 degrees of kick up. So maybe a set of U3304 to keep the original suspension geometry.

I have a set of rear wishbones you can have for £4 plus a chassis protector for £3
