Thanx guys.

The only exception I'll take with your "no-RPM" rule is the front bumper. It's absolutely recommended. It's much better than stock. Much. Even if you drive great, you can always be hacked into a heart-stopping end-over-end roll that will start the cash register in your mind ringing. The RPM front bumper has, on many occasions, prevented that cha-ching from happening. Get it. Wear it proudly.

AHHHHH nice to hear you are not making it a shelf queen!

Have fun with it and don't sell it without asking me

Ok so it does not seem like I am able to tighten the wheel nut all the way. The shoulder / chamfer of the axle sticks out from the hole in the wheel slightly. When I tighten the wheel nut it seems ok. But there is always play in off-road suspensions so I can't really tell.

I'll give it a go tomorrow for the mid-week racing and see how it does. Thanks again!!!

Some people have to run 2 shims. The specs and tolerances on all parts are not always perfect.

Im thinking about switching my 22 buggy to a B4.1 Worlds. I have a SC10 and T4.1 FT that I enjoy working on while I find the 22 to be a hassle tearing it apart. And I dont care for the way it drives.

What do I need to get for the B4.1 Worlds so I can use my TLR 22 buggy wheels and tires? I have too many tires to switch if I cant use them on the new B4.1. If I cant use them I will wait to switch until all my treads wear out. Thanks.

Hex adaptors for the rears. You can't use the fronts. I recently switch from a 22 as well.

Some color for the thread. The top pic is at the Novak race in Omaha, NE back in January. That was a fun weekend.
