Vanquish stage 1 kit?

[Brehrocks]

So I have my totally stock dingo kit, I was just wondering if I got the vanquish stage 1 kit if I need anything else for it to work, I heard that the knuckles will rub on the stock axial tires but I don't know? Thanks

From my recent experience, you heard correctly.
I recently put the 8* Chubs and knuckles on my Rubicon and the knuckles do indeed rub the tires... When I bought all of my stuff, It was recommended to me to get the junfac wheel widener kit, which I did... the Red set (12-13mm width I forget).

Only other thing I would recommend to add in, along with the stage one kit, is Universals (CVD's) to be able to take advantage of the greater steering abilities.

It also said that you will need a new drag link? Is that correct?

Correct. I went ahead and ordered the Currie Ti setup while i was ordering the stage 1
