Nice looking paint jobs. Stupid question, is there a NON-cab forward T4 body out there? The cab-forward looks ugly to me,like you cased a jump really bad and the lexan slid forward. Maybe its just me, but who still offers a normal t4 body.

Custom +x mm chassis mod

Hi,

I have some carbon fibre plate offcuts (and a milling machine etc) and was thinking I might try my own chassis mod.

Looks like just making a modified chassis plate (# 9818) and brace (# 9564) would do it, no?

Anyone done anything like this? My driving's not good enough for me to notice a difference, but it sounds like a fun thing to try...

I did this on my SC10 and it is working well. It really works well if you have FT rear blue hubs and the Carbon fiber hub towers. which lower it 2mm at the hubs

Yes this is what I ment.

73406 is for the Lunsford 3.5mm turnbuckles, 73378 is for what you have.

84/20 give or take a tooth. That 84/24 combo is going to run too hot.

The Bulldog on ThunderbirdJunkie's buggy reminds him of Speed Buggy.
And cab forward bodies are butt-ugly, blech.
