Or click on any random page for the thread and someone will have said something

Buggy looks nice! Comes at a very decent price (although I DID buy a brand new FT B4 10 years ago for about the same price). I wonder if everyone is posting crap about turnbuckles or fighting over nonsense instead of posting set-ups and mods because the car is still so fresh (or because it already comes so dialed )

I'm just curious if the turnbuckles that come in the B5 box will work on the B5.

Talking Public service announcement!

The three words to never say in an AE Buggy thread:

Ceramic Diff Balls

Ball Cups

Turnbuckles

Tread carefully when mentioning these words. You've been warned!

Yeah true...I remember buying one of the first handful of team edition B4's right off the truck at its debut major race, the 2003 Cactus Classic. I think i paid about $190 for the kit. It came with the old shocks that still used the clips to adjust ride height. They had a small amount of the threaded shocks but not enough to cover the 20-30 kits they had.

I hear it takes little or no modifications… You might have to wait for a reply

Is everyone enjoying the new steering assembly? I didn't really like the old one on the B4 series. I felt like it 'locked' when it was fully turned one way or another.

Oh those damn clips… And to this day, those were the biggest P.I.T.A. shocks I've ever built!!

There is a dedicated topic discussing the B5 turnbuckles: B5 turnbuckle discussions
