They fit, with some minor effort. With the exception of a set I've got, I haven't seen a set of the old white gears in about a year. BTW, while experimenting with just how free I could get things spinning this afternoon, I totally destroyed a new black chassis half. Oops!

I've also built a M05 with medium wheelbase, however the HPI body seems to have same problem with rear body posts...
Thanks.
Use a set of M-03/M-05 body posts on the rear. They're lower.
