Default Fresh kits for the winter.

I'm guessing no one will like these since they are not packed with AVID hopups or ESC trays etc. I just like to keep it clean.

NICE.......

But your missing one key part from Avid. Dude all that jack in your cars and you run aluminum on aluminum in the shock mounts?? Really??

Pony up the $24 and outfit both cars with the bushing mounts at least. LOL

Very nice, basically what I'm doing with mine. I am sticking with the traditional layout, no esc shelf or extra bling. I like old school and am wary of the latest fads and trends.

Was not a fan. The rear ones (b4) did not have enough of a wrench area which made it hard to remove without scratching them up (I use thread lock). I will not likly have these kits long enough to worry about wearing out shock caps.

I remember you saying that. I use this wrench and it fits even the short rear standoff perfectly with no thread lock needed to keep them good and snug. I use these wrenches for adjusting the camber links on all my metric 1/8th cars

I've been running a B4 of some type for ten years. I've had this B4.2 for about six months and this is what the front arms look like.



Is this a common thing with the new car? Did AE change something?

What are you doing?? I have never seen front arms like that in the 10 years I've ran a version of the B4...

I don't know for sure but I think the new plastic is softer. With that said. I have 5- sets I will make you a goo deal on. PM me if interested. I have a number of new b4 parts for sell.
