Keep the rest of your diff parts and get these...

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXZEL8&P=7

the parts you hav are not designed to work with the diff case you have..

Your other option would be to get a tranny case from an original B4 and not a B4.1 and keep all the parts you have. I won't guarentee it will fit but it should. I only say that because I don't want to give you bad info on a forum. I hate when people do that.
I don't know if the top shaft and idler gear bearings you have will fit in a B4 case..

I'm trying to find some smoother shocks for my t4, was thinking of getting either the velvet or big bore shocks from Kyosho but I was wondering if anyone here has some experience with this? Some people were saying AE might come out with new shocks so I don't know if I should wait or not -.-

why? AE guys seem to do pretty well with the V2's. K-velvet shocks on an AE, that's like watching your sister strip...just not right

nice shocks but I just can't go there..

What's wrong with that?

Take your time and build the v2. This includes grinding the spring so they compress evenly. Did that today and they feel as good as any K shock i have ever built.

I built my V2 shocks just fine! Had them for a couple months and STILL no leakage.. I just think the velvet/big-bore shocks that Kyosho has are super sexy And yes, the V2 ones work perfectly fine I just want to try 'em out and see if I like them better. Many many people have been talking about the smoothness of them

Hey thanks racer1812! There on order hopefully this will do the trick.

I have them on my B4 and they are great! You need to use the Kyosho bushings and you have to watch the bottom spring cap on the front arms. I had very old team shocks on mine and found the K shocks much cheaper than the V2 shocks. I am not a brand specific guy, I just wanted good shocks. I love my RT5 velvets so it was a no brainer.

try asiatees ... they have some good shocks for a good price.. just remember to get extra ends..

Anyone wana sell me there ft b4.1 race set up? Ill buy it today!

what pinion are they running with the 78?

You should try asking around at their page here on rctech:

http://www.rctech.net/forum/californ...e-so-cali.html

Now would you be running in their timing or non-timing 17.5 class? I really think what you should do is just get all the pinions from 30-35 and then just try them out for about 3-5 minutes each (after getting used to the track) and see which one fits your style best. You can't always go off of what other people say because everyone is at a different level.

awesome DO you think the velvet shocks from the rt5 would work okay on the T4?


Just go to the items fs/ft forum here. I see at least one maybe two b4's go up a day! And at good prices. You can get a FT roller for 100-150 depending on the condition. Thats where I am picking up my buggy when I get the dinero,feria,lana

Lol i have been looking hard for the past couple days cant find any good ones set up for mod want one with parts lipo the whole works

awesome DO you think the velvet shocks from the rt5 would work okay on the T4?



I would think they would. You might check the shaft lengths on both just to make sure you get the same droop. You may also have to shim the shocks to get the proper distance to clear the towers and to keep the springs from rubbing the turnbuckles. I had to on the b4. I love them though. My buggy is much better with this upgrade, but I did not ever have the AE V2 shocks.

So just a few 'modifications' and I'll be good.. Perfect Thats what I needed to know!

Hmmmm that's too bad. Finding the whole kit together is a little more tough. You'd probably be better off getting the roller kit, buy an asc/motor combo from rctech, a servo, and then get a fs gt3b for around 40 bucks new, and that would set you up just fine There have been a couple full kits in the past few days but mostly its just rollers. Good luck with that!
