and
3307:
http://www.jconcepts.net/store/index...roducts_id=218
It says it fits the B44, does it also fit the BJ4WE?

1) I want to stick an RPM mini bumper on the rear end of the BJ4WE. I'm going to take an existing mini front bumper that RPM makes and drill some holes into it. Does anyone here know which ones fits the rear with the least amount of modification?
There's a mini bumper for the 10T, B2, B3, B4/T4, and etc...
Also, I would like to use an RPM bumper in the front, which one of these mini bumpers fits the front of the BJ4WE?
2) Regarding BJ4WE bodies, do all of these bodies fit the BJ4WE:
0051 - Illuzion –B44 “Hi-Flow” body w/6” V-wing
0061 - Illuzion – B44 – Scoopless body
What's the difference between the 0051 body and the 1100 (stock BJ4WE) body? They look almost the same...

Hey Andy, when do you guys expect to have the shaft one-way back in stock for the WE? I am dying to try it out.
I let my buddy try my bj4 we which has been sitting out for like 5 months--dusted it off, ran a few laps and let him have at it. By the time the pack was drained he was bugging me to sell him my car--he ran some of his best laps ever within 2 minutes of driving it with a radio he doesn't like and never driving a bj4 ever before.
Its super dialed but I do want to see what that one-way will do.

Thumbs up for Andy for answering the 100000000000000 of questions just waiting for him!
BJ4WE rocks!
Any plans from JC to make an actual undertray for the BJ4WE? The current tray is for the BJ4 (not the WE) right? I really would love it if there was a direct replacement... Oh well, back to trimming the B44 undertray...
Regarding the bumpers, I order up some T-Bone's bumpers for the BJ4WE. I really love their design. Plain but straight to the point, with enough kick-up to prevent the nose from catching. I've used the RPM wide bumper on the B4 in the past, and they protect, but was a killer on the two screws for the bulkhead everytime my B4 took a nose dive and dove into the dirt...
Regarding the bodies, I'm going to be looking for them at my LHS that carries JC bodies... The 0061 Illuzion for the B44 is very niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice...

Hmmm, you should probably keep it away from my hands, for some reason, my BJ4WE is attracted to the walls when I drive mine...
Seriously though, last weekend, I took my BJ4WE out for a drive around a newly built track near my area, I didn't break any pieces! I think part of the reason was because the layout wasn't as aggressive as the place I used to run it at... I think having prescription glasses this time also helped out...
I noticed that JC has some pretty interesting tire treads. What do you guys think of the Goosebumps and the Double Ds? DDs looks very similar to the Holeshots, so I imagine they would work very simliar, and the goosebumps seems like a cross between step pins (my old favorite) and Losi's taper pins.
It's so nice to see 4WD have so much more choices in tires! More choices means more fun!

Goosebumps working well for my b44 & T4 on a 'bowtie' track. I highly recommend them. Great tire. Waiting for winter/indoor track to open back up to try the D's...they are definitely softer than PL holeshoots and should work well. Courious what the wear will be on the D's indoors.

The Double D's may look similar. But that is where they stop.
The carcass design is a JConcepts original. As such, the tire is
different from the, "other one". Tire wear will depend on your surface.
The Goosebumps is great for a loser surface. It's been a great tire.
