Hello Tom,

Did you get an answer for this? I was wondering the same too!

Did you use the original fuel tank stand offs?

Assuming you had to drill new holes in the chassis for the B3 tank standoffs?

I believe it's one hole you drill in the chassis, and the losi tank mounts work. B3 tank I am talking about.

I just pulled my center diff apart and found out where a grinding noise was coming from. I was looking for center diffs and noticed that v2 diffs cost the same as v1 diffs. Is there anything extra I need to run v2 diffs in a rc8.2? Thanks

Old thread, but I have a question regarding the vertical caster blocks. Looking at the pics isn't the stock caster blocks vertical, all the mounting points look the same as far as I can tell looking at the plastic casters. Do they bolt up differently?
