hey im going to start racing this year and i have some money saved up and im wondering if i should get an axle or A-arms first or save up some more and get them both at the same time. I already have works tripple rate shocks with rezzies that should be fine untill i get really into racing hard. thanks

Also, when doing the axle, I would say do the rearend (:blah: ) all at the same time. i.e. replace the bearing carrier, lock nut, check the brakes, possibly new chain and sprockets.

That's what I did...I just figured I would do it all at once, so I wouldn't have to go back and take chit apart.;)

Id save up the money and do both at the same time. Thats what I did with my quad. Like redroost85 said you should replace the bearing carrier and axle nut also chain, sprocket, or brakes if it needs it. I didnt get an aftermarket carrier when I got my LSR axle and not too long after I had problems with my bearings going bad. Next time I get an axle im getting the bearing carrier too unless its already a twin row carrier.
