Hi All,
I have a kit coming to me from Tekno direct but Canada Post is a let down most times which will most likely me cause me to not have the buggy in time for next weekend's race.
I have a second kit coming via UPS and would like to offer up my kit that will arrive between Wednesday and Friday next week for $515USD shipped. I will ship it as it comes from Tekno after changing the shipping labels. PayPal only. Please PM if interested and I can have this shipped to you by the end of next week.

Hi Danny (tecknoRC)
Really impressed with all have been reading about the EB48. I've been running a Vorza RTR, which I have heavily modified to make into a somewhat decent race roller. However the Vorza has served it's purpose of breaking me into racing and now I'm ready to move into a true race roller. I was about to go with the Serpent 811Be, so glad I found info the EB48, I haven't seen any EB48's at our local tracks in FL. All your information on the balance the EB48 has versus the 2 pack rollers was excellent.
I am truly impressed with the amount of feedback you provide on this forum, it makes me feel reassured that you guys are serious about your products. I haven't seen this level of responsiveness from any other manufacture. Looking forward to getting my kit delivered next week and starting the build.

Still waiting, (im)patiently, for the shipping confirmation from Stormer.
Doesn't matter for this weekend anyway, the track is being rebuilt, but I'm hoping to have it done before next weekend's race.

This kit I think will be a lot more stable and absorb the track much better than your current kit. Being able to drive it harder will ease the nerves knowing your kit is solid. If its as mechanically sound as it looks I will definitely be joining the techno revolution with ya before the end of the season. I have been examining the pics/vids and the only thing I see is the tie rods look small in ID. Yet the rod ends look like they could be modded with a drill bit to use a 4/5mm rods. Good luck with your new ride.
. The camber links have 5mm threads and the steering links have 4mm.Camber-

The Xray 808's turnbuckles are the same way(it saves weight) and that kit is hella tough. I don't think there will be much of an issue. It's all good.

Wow.
Ok so I built the center diffs without the shims, then with them. Both ways it will NOT turn at all.
Really starting to piss me off.
Not only that but TKR1222 shows to be put between the the TKR5112 and the bearing, but they are way bigger then that part and just sit there loose.
