Question Spare knuckles now included in kit?

In the package, there is a 4 spare knukles with a note about they know original knuckles production have a problem and they ask to replace them with those reinforced one instead.

So I guess I'll use the one that come installed and will keep the new one as spare instead of doing the swap and throw originals in garbage.

Since how long they add this replacement knuckles kit? Anyone know? Is this an old kit? Maybe newer kit come with knuckles already replaced in factory? Just curious...

Lately, many of the evo xmods have been coming with the spare knuckles. before deciding to just leave the stock ones on, examine them and make sure there are no cracks in them, if there are, REPLACE THEM! BTW, welcome to the XMODding world
(My Firebird came with the knuckles too.

I wonder why there would be a crack from factory.. they may be more fragile thought. What will happen once one will broke? Is it that dramatic?

And how long it took you to assemble it? I will have some free time tonight, gf will be out for dinner with friends. :-)

The fastest would be to drop battery in and drive the platform alone before assembling it all.

When I was assembling it I just looked it over, the knuckles were easy, prob 10 min my first time, but i installed every upgrade i had in order to get familiar with it.

And im not sure why they would use knuckles with faults but i think that as long as they give you spares its great cause if the originals were fine then you have extras
