I was initially planning on doing everything at once but when I called Fortune yesterday to price out a set of the aluminum bodied 510, I was advised they are still in development, likely available in early 2019. If anyone else has an idea of where I can get a set of aluminum bodied monotubes built to order for ~$3000 let me know.

Are you going to use the OS Giken 75w250 gear lube?

You should use a solid diff bushing. You won't notice anything different.

Seb change my Whiteline rear diff bushing while he did the rear diff cooler install. He said it was pretty well chewed up. He installed a Z1 diff bushing.

I don't have any opinions or ideas on gear lube. Solid bushings are strictly prohibited in the Stu ruleset too

The OS Giken lube is recommended. It's on the $$ at $70.00 a liter. And you will need about 2.5 liters. It's the lube I use.

Didn't know that about the bushing rule.
