just wondering which one everyone prefers??? I have a Rustler w/Velenion BL kit. I just upgraded to piggyback shocks and the plastic all seems too soft.

Im thinking Aluminum so I dont give up strength to reduce weight.

your experience is much appreciated!!

I have a vxl stampede with aluminum and carbon fiber parts. The carbon body post mounts break easier. I like the bulkhead, front and rear shock towers. Front and rear rpm arms and a big after market bumper. This should almost be bullet proof.:dude:
