I have had both MM and currently have the BM5. Both hook up very similarly in my opinion. The edge in jumping and overall ease of driving goes to the B5M I would have to say. And once AE gets their poop in a group they should also have the edge in part support.

Not sure if it has been covered yet, but a Jconcepts finisher Centro body will fit right on a B5m. Doesn't quite contour the chassis in the front but fits right on no trimming needed.

A few keep trying rear drive here and are getting good results.

Did they tell you which hole and what ball stud washer size is stock?

Anyone have a good set up for these new aluminum rear hubs? I called AE and they had no clue what even the stock setup was

With my B4’s I always liked running 0 anti squat in the rear, no shims under the front rear arm mount.
I am a little confused how to run / try 0 anti squat on the B5. Is there a C /D mount combo that will do this?
Would you need to buy the aluminum C / D mount and run no spacers?

The C and D mounts have inserts that change the toe and anti-squat. I'm not totally sure if there is a 0 option. There's no spacers like on the b4.
