I really want to try a mm, but have yet to see a mm car (losi, schumacher, team c, kyosho) work on my track (low to medium traction indoor red clay, currently smooth, but not typically). I really don't want to get into a mm buggy with out an easy out if I can't get it to work.

That seems odd, since China is west of the west coast where AE is located. Even more odd since that's not how the RM rolled out. The timeline seems reasonable though. Maybe I'll see Kody this week, hopefully he'll have the test mule so I can check the wires on my ESC that I want to use.

Will 2059 fit better than the B4 punisher set?

Just curious....what's wrong with the B4 set?
Nevermind...just saw that the b4 set comes with 2 of the 2 1/4" and 4 of the 2 1/8" turnbuckles. The 2059 set for the 22 would probably be the best option if you wanted to go the lunsford route as it comes with 6 of the 2" turnbuckles.

What's all the fuss about turnbuckles?
I took the Lunsford Punishers off my B4 and used them on my B5 without any issues. Two of the turnbuckles were shorter so I used those on the back, the ends go on far enough for sure. I used Diff Lube on the threads. The cheap black turnbuckles that come with the B5 are in my pit box for back-ups.
*Four of the Lunsfords I used were 2" long and two were approx. 1.75" for you technical guys.

It is weird, the kit on my 4.2 was the kit that included ballcups (I didn't use them) and the kit I ordered for the B5 was just the turnbuckles for the B4. They are different lengths. The kit I tried to put on my B5 have 2 longer buckles, and it looks like the kit on my 4.2 are all the same size. Not sure how that happened... I might try to take the kit off the 4.2 and put it on the B5. What happened to me, was I assumed they were all the same size, and stuck a longer one on the camber link instead of the steering link so it bottomed out on the ball cups. I am sure they will be fine on the steering, but I was also not able to adjust them without the cups popping off the ballstud.
Put a set of FT buckles on and they are just fine:

I've used Lunsford for years. They are top quality. They have a great warranty and I've only used it once for a bent turnbuckle that was probably the fault of the driver (me).
I've owned probably 40 or 50 Lunsford Ti turnbuckles and countless Lunsford Ti screws.

They are both made from titanium... How can the jconcepts possibly be any stronger assuming rod diameter is equal. Lunsford was the one who started making ti turnbuckles JC... they copied it I'll put my$ in a American company that's been here since the early days...
I just picked my kit up today and a set of 22 2.0 hd lunsfords for it
