it only costs £2.50 so not a big gamble. You would probably have to ream out the holes as the kit is metric unlike B4 pins

there isn't anything wrong with the X-Pro shocks though (except the o-rings and springs), mine is currently running B4 silver springs all round.

Ryan is the only one currently making the carbon parts in the UK. You'll just have to wait until he makes a second batch.
The X-pro t-piece will break just like the madrat one because THEY ARE THE SAME PART.

as previously stated, drive slower and more carefully until you master things. And don't go for silly huge jumps while bashing. No car will stand up to bad landings at speed.

Seriously what are you trying to say? I read that as "My mate snapped one that Ryan made, just a little stone snappped it"

Is that what you mean as i find it hard to believe you snapped a Carbon one easily.

My mate snapped a carbon one too. The rear section where it has been machined down very thin is extremely weak. One little knock to the rear and the rear lower arm pin holder gets torn off, taking the thin carbon with it.

Im currently trying to re-deign a T plate that is stronger at the back. Will hopefully be in a few weeks.

Jamie, get me one, that you design, and I will tell you if it will snap. I ran the Ryan T-Piece on Sunday, and I did some decent destructive testing on it..... If you don't re-seal the edges and areas of machining, they will be weak spots.

Right now, I need to get some serious weight into my car.
