Make sure that those Camber/Caster plates for the front will work with the tocikos. When I got mine the plates were not designed to work with the Tocikos without some shaving to the shock tube insert. (but that has been like 4 years ago) Just make sure that if you haven't talked to them, ask them about this.

Glad they have finally updated them to work with the Tocikos, cause what I had to do was a major pain in the ***.
