Very cool and unique camo!
Good job on the suspension, it really makes a huge difference with the stock Coolbank Stuart.

Really like those detail mods on the suspension arms. With them being so exposed it makes a big difference. Did you get the little hex bolts from Canada? I've never been able to find these little details everybody else seems to have no problem sourcing except on German sites and I always forget when I'm ordering other stuff and the postage is

if ordered seperately

Thanks everyone for the interest in Gina the elefante dundum.
PM--I'm sourcing the M3x30mm bolts from Aliexpress for the idler axle. You can get M3x10mm to do the pivot of the suspension arms but if you don't mind cutting the 30mm down shorter they'll work there too. They screw into a shaft that goes into the hull so length isn't crucial.

Mike.
