I had to ream all of the arms to free them up.

thanks for the info!

with it sounding like this change plants the rear better, wonder if a future SCT410 will get that change too.

By far the easiest build I have had in a while. Except those micro sized o-rings on the bleeder screws........other than that, all parts fit very well. I didn't have to ream out the a-arms for the hinge pins like rcgod above had to do.

Cut 1 cm of "tooth picker" sharp side connect to screw, then slide micro o-rings in place.

So obviously you guys are just getting your kits up and running the past few weeks but any feedback on driving ease compared to the .3 out of the box? I'd like to upgrade to one brand for 1/8th scale E-Buggy/E-Truggy and heard the Tekno Truggy was amazing from local guys at the local track but nearly all of them didn't like the 48.3 and said the rear end just never could get planted and hooked up.

From the guys running the new .4 have you found this to be corrected?

Making it more planted and easy to drive was the primary reason for the .4 changes on the buggy.

Ran mine for the first time today and the rear end is definitely planted. Easy to drive and the rear never stepped out once. Very happy with the changes tekno made.

Default EB48.4 or HB E817 ??? and when E-Truggy ET48.4???

Hi guys, I'm new here and I want to ask you opinion, in my country there are not many drivers with Tekno car and for my area there is nobody, and I have doubts ...

I will renew my 1 / 8th cars (buggy and truggy) Before I had truggy mbx7T eco and buggy mbx7 eco, the truggy I already sold it and the buggy I will sell it when I buy the new electric kit ....

I would like to know if Tekno is going to take out the new electric Truggy, which would be the ET48.4, in case they know of some rumors or news ...

And as I say where I live nobody has Tekno, but if they have Hot Bodies E817. I do not know if I renew my E-Buggy with a Tekno EB48.4 or with an HB E817 ...

Someone helps me decide. Thank you.

The universals do not interchange, so I assume the cvds won't either. I think the lengths are different.

Uni's and CVD's are all new, not interchangeable.
