Organizing Your Parts
Keep your workshop organized by grouping parts together. Create separate areas for engine components, body panels, and electrical parts. This makes assembly faster and prevents losing small items.
Parts by System Category
Understanding parts by their system helps with organized building. Each system must be complete before the car functions properly. Missing even one small part can prevent entire systems from working.

Suspension and Brake Parts
Front suspension includes struts, control arms, and steering components. Rear suspension uses springs and shock absorbers. The brake system requires rotors, calipers, pads, lines, and the master cylinder. Wheels and tires complete the rolling chassis.
