now to put the fk arms and chubs on the t2 would be worth it. at least until parts are more readily available.

I measure 24.5mm with a ruler, I don't have my calipers at work with me.

I have to agree with the others so far - I'm generally not in the mindset of "must have the newest car" but if you've got an FK'04, just get the T2 when it's available to you, it'll just be simpler! Hybrid cars (the ones I've seen) so rarely work for people. But if that's what you want to do, knock yourself out

I guess it's 42.5mm? looks like a typo..
Anyway, thanks Frank.

I bought one of the RW racing spurs but it was not a direct fit as none of the wholes lined up. It did have blue numbering instead of red. Are there two different types?

no, 24.5, could be 25mm, I'll confirm when I get home with digital calipers.

I drive with Robitronic spurs, they look the same (the white ones) and they have a direct fit.

So.. If I put T2 suspension on T1.. wheelbase would be 7mm wider than original T1?

I guess that means there is no way to make T2 suspension on T1 now...

Here's the area you have to sand the top graphite brace for PRS gears to work, it's really not that much to sand, literally I had a box cutter and shaved a bit off, since I got the gears here at work with no RC tools!! So it's not that much AT ALL
