Best performance mod on the cheap

Can grizz's kit be installed with the frame in the sled ?

Maybe with alot of difficulty and inability to get to all the angles to weld it completely. Much much easier to ensure the subframe is straight (or straighten it the best you can with a long crowbar or pipe between the a-arms to tweak the passing of the shock thru the upper arm until its centered, or to pull both arms straight forward if they are both bent) and then remove it from the frame so you can reach and twist and flip it over to get everything welded solid. It will take about an hour or 2 the first time to get it out, under 30 minutes to put it back and remove it on the next one.

NH-Vmax -- no the front sub frame has to come out and all components must come off of it to put the gusset kit in. Search the site for Grizztracks gusset kit and you will find his excellent write up for how to remove, mod and re-install the sub frame complete with detailed pic's and info.

As for the performance gains in your price range I would definitely do some clutch work. As the boys mentioned earlier in this thread most other add ons require more components combined to operate at max efficiency. Weights, rollers and spring change will make a huge diff once dialed in. Good luck and mean good luck trying not to spend more and more $ on this toy, it's addicting.
