Also for the FTW body, is it a direct fit w no other modifications? Looks a lot bettr than stocker
FTW00033 is almost a direct fit on the NB48, im out but im sure FTW has them.

I think I might need to put that D812 up for sale cheap to get my hands on a NB...When the gut speaks,one should listen. I ignored it last year but I shall not ignore it anymore!!
Welcome mate I am sure you will love this buggy it's awesome

Keep us posted how you go with it mate

Took my NB48 out for her maiden voyage yesterday at Leisure Hours. After playing with some springs, camber links and tires throughout qualifying, I started second in the Bmain. Won it. Started 11th in the A and drove it up to third. If the race would have been 28 minutes instead of 30 I would have finished there, but my receiver pack died on me at the very end. Very pleased with the buggy! I like the way this car drives even better than my EB48 (which I love). This buggy was well worth the wait! Thanks Tekno!

Built yesterday O and P bags (shocks). Found that after placing shock onto the shock tower, installing bushing and securing flanged locknut shock itself doesn't move freely. Its my fault or all that stuff needs to work a little to develop freeplay?
Also i've noticed that bushing between shock cap and standoff is directed (more flat area on one side), but manual doesn't say anything about it. What direction is proper for installing: more flat area to tower or to locknut?
