You'll have to cross-reference. All of the parts are listed for the SCT410 now. We'll have a parts list available soon that will highlight the new parts.

SC10 4x4 wheels will work. There is clearance for the ribbing, we made sure of it (Thanks to DE Racing for the help with that). The AE wheels might push it over 296mm depending on toe/camber, but it should fit. In the ROAR rule book, it states that the width measurement is from axle center to axle center. If this is truly the case, the AE wheels should be fine.

The SCTE wheels are ~1.4mm narrower and are ROAR legal.

Turning the center diff 180 ?

1. No. You would need to get the EB48 arms, steering blocks, spindle carriers, and rear hubs. We will have some 17mm options coming soon after release.

2. You will need the EB48 motor mount (TKR5210), center outdrives (TKR5112), diff couplers (TKR5075), center axles (TKR5076, TKR5077), and the brake kit (TKR5206X). Clutch system fits without any extra parts, just flip the diff.

Our truck has clearance for the AE wheels, we made sure of it

Chassis is 4mm 7075 aluminum. Shocks bodies are hard anodized aluminum 16mm bore and threaded for easy pre-load adjustment. Just about any spring made for 16mm shocks will fit (Tekno, HB, Kyosho, even Losi springs fit), so you're covered.

I have had the honor of running the prototypes (thanks Danny). This is one awesome truck! I have only ran it a few days but have put it's durability to the test. Needless to say it has passed with flying colors. I am still working on a set up to fit my driving style but the truck has been very responsive to adjustments, just like the EB48. More to come...

Are the body posts at the same spacing as the SCTE compared to the wheelbase? I've got a new body, which my SCTE could very much use at this point, but don't want to poke holes in it if they won't be in the right place for the SCT410.

The precut Losi bodies drop right on. But if you are putting holes in a body and your body posts have warped or moved (which is common), the holes may not line up after you transfer the body to the SCT410.

And yes, it's possible to convert the EB48 the other way. Again, quite a few parts though.

Nice to know that there is the interchangeability barring cost effectiveness with all the required parts.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.
