You can actually use the Exotek RF hangers on the type B plastic chassis, but it requires you to do a little dremel work to flatten out some of the ribbing where the hanger sits.

I know this question has been ask before but what is the difference between the dex210 and the v2
08-04-2017, 09:55 AM
front/rear shock towers
Front and rear shocks (rear shocks maintain the same shock body)
Front bulk head and rear hangers (RF, RR)
Drive shafts (not necessary to use though)
Motor guard for RM configuration
Front and rear arms (rear arms not necessary, they just have additional strength and mounting positions for shocks)
Gearbox (not necessary, but good to have)
I think that's it.

Pro eBay buyer tip: Always check the shipping cost/options before you order. I made a major booboo when I committed to buy a pair of 42.5mm shock shafts from a seller in Germany, not realizing the price listed did not include international shipping. It said to "ask seller" about it. Long story short, I just paid a butt load of money (relative to the part cost) to have it shipped here. They packed the heck out of it though, and even included a pack of Haribo gummy bears. *sigh* Don't be a ME.

Lol i 2nd that. The same thing happened to me. I saw a ff03 roller for a really good price bought it with out noticing the shipping and long story short i had to pay 70 dollars for shipping.

Well let's see if I can get this off the top of my head without looking:
front/rear shock towers
Front and rear shocks (rear shocks maintain the same shock body)
Front bulk head and rear hangers (RF, RR)
Drive shafts (not necessary to use though)
Motor guard for RM configuration
Front and rear arms (rear arms not necessary, they just have additional strength and mounting positions for shocks)

Two things: First, I've lived in Germany. I know what it costs to ship things. Unless Deutsche Posts prices have increased by 400% in eight years....
Second: Even better, I've looked at the shipping certificate.... Things that cost the shop 4€ are having 25€+ tacked on by the shop. Maybe they don't like Americans, we do take their women from them when we're there. Either way, Germany is for the most part, the LAST option. You know who are awesome to deal with? Brits, Greeks, Italians, South Africans and most of the guys from the little Arab states like UAE. Those people bend over backwards to help you out and don't rip you off.
UNFORTUNATELY..... guess where a ton of Durango parts and kits are located?
Germany.

Yeah.... I'm going to call out any Germans here. German shops straight rip off international customers using shipping. I've had German shops try to hit me with their insane social welfare tax, a tax international customers are not supposed to pay. I've seen shipping charges of 30€ to send a packet of Tamiya hinge pins to the US.
