Chris from AE has posted on here and did provide some useful information in the beginning of the thread that got us pointed in the right direction. As much as we would like them too they wont show us everything they do. Somethings pretty cool fail and hit the trash can at AE I bet. If I remember right this truck started getting designed 2 years ago. If we new about it we would have been bothering them every week about it. 
That is why no one has seen the B5 yet.

Just ordered my MTK clutch basket. Now who is making the chassis braces? I also have the exotek chassis coming too.

I think my dog bones hit the inner dia of my diff cups. Was not too worried about the arms.

Just built a quick spreadsheet to compare the component cost of the various FT goodies vs. the new FT kit price. As expected, you get north of $300 with just the shipping FT upgrades (shocks, turnbuckles, sway bars, pins, hexes, screws, etc.), without even adding the new stuff (VTS slipper, battery cradle, brace, etc.) or the spare parts (arms, bones, towers, bumpers, wheels, bearings, etc.).
So, for those of us who haven't yet scored the FT stuff, the FT kit is a super value.

are you being sarcastic? or are you saying that your glad you decided to forgo the upgrades that are clearly helpful just so that you can retard your performance in order to pay more for the same upgrades a year or so later?
