I use Jconcepts rear alum. hex's, the front I use the stock plastic ones with small hole drilled in them with a set screw to keep them on. the alum. fronts seem to give you a 1 or so +mm offset. I didn't like that so I ran stock.
You mean they start to eat away at that lip and it creates a gap, right? I'll order up the alum rears. The fronts don't have that big cliff. Makes perfect sense.
That's what I thought with the AL hexes I was finding. I like that drilling into the plastic with a setscrew. That's brilliant.

Yeah, FT kit. Want a nice clean transition over to hexes using AE stuff if possible. I used your list for my ordering, And I really appreciate you putting one together.

I'm considering it because I honestly don't want to hassle with a balldiff. That Thrust bearing is the $^#@&! Devil. Maybe I'll just get a kit and build it as a backup till I get some opinions.
I 'really' want AE to build the T4/B4/SC10 version of the Shocks that came on the SC104x4. What a fantastic shock. Scale it down just a bit and wow. We need big bores like Losi. I know we're doing just fine, but that 22 Platform is a bitchin' setup.
