I very much enjoy the look of my Proline bulldog body.

With the associated big bore shocks coming out i am hoping someone can sell a big bore spring conversion for the B44.1 or T4.1

I think its going to be a little while before i can convert mine over.

Please message me please if you have some for sale.

I hope JC releases their hex wheels soon. Almost out of pin and bearing wheels. Would like to switch to hex.

Do you have anything against using the DE wheels?

Seeing as the Avid and Losi springs should work on the new shocks, it may be difficult to find anyone to part with theirs

I have some DE wheels for my buggy, but yes, I dislike the t4 wheels. I actually dislike spoked wheels on buggy and ST. But overall DE makes a nice wheel. I just dont like the T4 design. JC is making a dished wheel, and that is more to my liking.

jconcepts is making new front axles. They also make the hexes. I do know you do not use the sc10 hexes. or the b4 hexes. but something like the b4 rear hex on the front and rear. There were some posts on the Jconcepts thread about it.

Search? Go back one page, I posted it there.

No on the Losi wheels - wrong offset.

They were available in early Sept... Tower had some supply a while back, but is now showing that they're back-ordered.

JC and AE parts people have been waiting to see released are like new Apple products: Supply never seems to meet demand.

Default Mounting Big Bore Shocks

In preparation for receiving my Big Bore shocks I have begun looking at some mounting options. I have mounted my rear camber link on the opposite side of the C hub to allow more room for the large shock/spring. Do any of you know how this will effect my handling? I am going to run some laps with it tomorrow but wanted to see what you all thought

you are changing the angles. I am sure it will effect it. but how? I dunno. let us know how it works. If you using zero deg hubs, you could flip them maybe. I know a few people did that with the sc10 4x4. then use washer to move it back a little further if you need.

I run mine back there with my BBs. I personally didn't notice any difference. Neither did my lap times.
