By who? TLR guys? They're too worried about breaking hingepins. HB guys? They don't have a 4wd yet.

Here's a list (all in red anodized aluminum please!):

Servo mounts
Shock collars
Bottom Shock cap
Rear Hub Carriers
Rear Hub Carrier inserts
Front hinge pin brace
Steering Rack
Steering bellcrank
Front bulkhead with optional space to add weight
Rear Arm mounts
Top Shaft
Wing mounts
Motor Plate (same kind of milling as the B4.2 one)
Battery thumb screws
Graphite Battery Hold-down
Graphite receiver shelf (maybe?)

Tell them to get working on it!

But will my ESC/Receiver fit? What if the R10 Pro doesn't fit? Will the Hobbywing fit? I thought they were the same? Does the REEDY ESC fit? Should I just go back to the RC10 wiper? What tires should I run? Silver Barcodes? I mostly run up and down my street should I wait for the MM? What about the RM to MM conversion? The Girls Scout next door said it wasn't going to happen, but next week the Factory Team would be released and it would be a MM to RM Conversion but wouldn't go the other way.

Read the Damn posts we mock ourselves!

I love AE threads. The TLR and kyosho ones are boring.

Bought my B5 on Feb 6th, missing the front hinge pin brace #91371. On back order and out of stock every wear SWEET. One more thing who's bright idea was it to not include the inserts with the alum rear arm mounts? I just want to run!!!

The inserts are replaceable, but I get your thinking. Could be worse. Kyosho makes you buy half the car to get the plastic suspension holders...

Also, tlr makes you buy all of the new hingepins. So if you break one, its 25 bucks to get a matching replacement

Thats why I have mostly AE cars. Parts affordability and most importantly availability. Not to mention track performance.

just buy some front arms because they come with the front brace.

My car will be here Friday and all spare parts have arrived. I also built my JC turnbuckles today too and will use the kit cups as spares. Just tryin to speed up the build! Silencer was sent out yesterday for paint.

I feel like I'm going to build the kit with the 3mm insert first after reading these posts.
