Pretty damn quick, I was surprised. Like 3 or 4 working days, Dejan is a great seller. He responds quickly and is very helpful.

Yes, two nylon spacers.

It's not the tower that'll be the problem but the bulkhead. When you flip the buggy and impact the tower it's rock solid and has a large turning moment from its length. All of which will sooner than later crack the fixing point on the bulkhead. Is the base car an original flux, not an upgrade? Because then at least it'll have composite bulkheads which are a bit stronger. Personally with a buggy I'd consider alloy bulkheads or at least bracing back into the chassis.

I'd think twice on using alloy shock towers, especially exposed as they are on a buggy chassis. Aluminium is a stiff material and it'll transmit a lot of energy to down into the bulkhead. A plastic shock tower will flex absorbing the energy. The shock mount on the images above looks very weak, can't imaging it would last long without bracing.

Isn't it a 5b Alza XL buggy conversion, so a tad heavier than a stock flux? Time to get a center dff kit from Dejan?

6s, so the 1480kv? A quick look suggests the 4092 comes with 4mm connectors, the cables look short and there's also three females connectors supplied. Just looks like you'd need to make three short extensions using the three leopard connectors to 6.5mm castles on the blur. It's the same can size, 40mm just a lot longer at 92mm.

There's not that many sizes needed tbh, any special length one's I just buy longer and chop them off to size. Got loads of pics as I built it, really should make a thread for it. Still not finished though, just modding the big bore shock shafts to 5mm.

Yeah M3, especially stainless (A2?) has a lowish yield strength, does seem a bit on the thin side for the top mount. M4 stainless or 12.9 HT M3 is a better bet. I've taken mine out to M4, in A4 stainless which has the higher yield strength.

The stainless M4's at the top?

Odd that reverse thing. I have the 8BL150 with a 1717 and it would ignore forward throttle without a few squeezes, reverse was fine. Had to calibrate it a few times to get it to stick. But now it moves forward/back at a crawl with the slightest touch.

Have you calibrated the throttle range?

I've seen those before, says for 6mm axles? 2350 are 8mm. Sure they'll fit?

Just for reference in case it falls though, I just got a HW Quickrun WP-8BL150 for

Very nice. I've not posted any pics, but very nearly finished my first ever build with a similar spec. Very interested to see how yours runs, gearing, temps etc. What was the gearing 14/52?

Payment sent for 100

I agree the ss kit is the best option, trouble is finding one as they're discontinued now unfortunately.

Try this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/pokerface888trsox

My eldest's ss says hi.

Link isn't working, still doing these?

Good stuff, will PM

Can you do a center diff with a 50T spur?

I'll take the servo if still available?

Thanks for the link, funnily enough I'd already followed that one back and it sold on ebay awhile back.

As above. Not really interested in the electrics rx/tx, motor etc. Ideally a little used Flux roller for donor, but open to anything. Sorted

Did you sell the shell yet?
