Run another car if you are not happy. It is that simple. Complaining may make you feel better but it won't change anything. Send it to AE and things may change. You guys make me laugh with all this whining. LOL!

Lots of BS going on in this thread now.
But let me say this. AE is stepping up. Big time.
Yeah it seems as though some are complaining, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease. There are a few AE engineers watching this thread. There are probably a couple Team drivers watching as well. They know we are here and they are listening. It may be beating a dead horse to continue to post about the same issues over and over again, but there is also strength in numbers. When one customer is unhappy it is an easy fix, when 50% of your customers are unhappy you have to step in and do something. And they are.
I said before that I cant in good conscience recommend this car to one of my customers looking for a 4wd race buggy, I can now take that back and say that as much as I love this buggy, I love the support from the guys at Team Associated.
Now can we start talking about rumored parts and upgrades?
Where do I start in cutting down weight?

Youre lucky. My local track has 5 or more new 64Ds. The shop cant keep front arms in stock they break so often. I understand a bad driver or 2 but we have some lcoal pros and they are experiencing the same issues.
Front arms, shock towers, steering rack breakage. This is a 10th scale track and none of that 1/8th scale jump stuff. Front end of this car needs help badly.

AE was aware of what the current cars [it competitors] were like. Why would they release something not on par with what is already selling? As a consumer I don't care that the car is gen 1. Not my concern. The car should have been able to compete with what was on the market when it came out.

Jmoneym, its not bad. Its just not great [yet]. Don't expect to be blown away by it the first time you throw it down. I'd run it box stock for a few packs and then if you find it to be a little twitchy you can make the front link longer and put a heavier spring on the front which will calm it down. I, myself, have 13 degree caster blocks showing up today and I'm going to try the Cole Tollard set up that was just posted. Also, I would have built mine with the plastic diff gears if they were available at the time. I realize that plastic gear diffs sound scary but they work great for XRay so I don't expect the results to be any different for Associated.

Also Ive had the car since initial release I run on a astroturf decent size track and i have yet to break any part. i will say that the bearing popped out last race from the rear bulkhead but Im hoping the o ring trick will fix that. if not I'm going to get those snap rings i read about. We have a descent size straight and my car did cartwheels at the end of it and nothing broke.

Do people remember the 22B when it first came out? Yea. It wasn't perfect. The front suspension was a mess. Use these parts from this car, these parts from this car. The steering rack is/was a joke. The car was flawed, albeit being an amazing step forward by TLR (two platforms MM/RM in one car). The 2.0 took care of all those problems and the car became not only driveable, but won a bunch.
That being said... give it some time. AE is an amazing company

Does anyone know if the B6D steering blocks will fit onto the B64D? I use these on my B6D and like the feel, but I can't find them for the B64D.

I would say yes they will fit. I have the Schelle Type 1 on my B6D and B64D.
