I was wondering if any one could give me some advice...Im thinking of convering my b5m into rear motor but still on the fence about it.I was wondering what front and rear arms to run for rear motor? I run on medium bite clay,also can I get away with running the same front end geometry as far as kick up angle and spindles? Also are the rear toe and anti squat the same and can I run my factory team hinge pin holders from my b5m on the rear motor?

Sure, I saw the question and answer, which you modified in your "quote".

I should have asked my real question more clearly though and shouldn't have replied back while my wife was standing in front of me waiting to leave for dinner.

But mschumi101 answered it pretty well.

the answer is everywhere. in short, the kit bearing suck and the front spindles and insert suck. I am using ceramic bearings in one of my cars and is had been smooth for months. well about a year now. all my non ceramics get crunchy after a month or so.

so, the entire front clip will work fine in either car. the rear clip is different including the C and D mounts. as far as what arms? I use the RM arms on both the RM and MM cars.

I run the Schelle, like that it goes around my motor/ESC wires a little better.

How did you manage to break a battery strap?

My son ran an entire race with the strap in place but the hold down nuts not there. I'm more surprised that he DIDN'T break the brace.

the schelle does NOT have a back stop. if you move the pack forward, you will need foams. Poorly thought out. If you want an adjustable strap, I would get the Plan B Racing strap. Otherwise, get the exotek.
