What bodies fit this car? I am looking to replace both my Nitro and Electric B3 bodies. Bittydesigns and Jconcepts only have nitro covered. What about the eBuggy?

Has anyone tried the RC8B3 diffs in the RC8.2? The diff case is carry-over as well as the center spur gear. I want the 44/13 gear ratio for my Nitro car.

The center diff is shifted the right some and the position of things are different which is why the RC8.2e conversion will not work. I suspect that there will be a eBuggy version some time.
