I just did the same thing, built up a B3 from parts I had. Will you only consider new parts?

I found even the simplest things like the correct ball studs are hard to find and prices have gone through the roof.

At first I was going for new parts, but with the cost of NOS parts skyrocketing I think I'll entertain lightly used (but not overly scratched up) parts.. it would certainly make things a lot more economical. Did you build yours as a shelf queen or a runner? If you are careful about it there are a n...

Their website shows the T3 kits in stock... though if you're trying to buy from a vendor with a lower price my suggestion would be to compare the instruction manuals to be 100% sure, then buy the kit that fits your needs. https://img2.associatedelectrics.com/pdf/cars_and_trucks/RC10B3/Team/b3_manual...

T3 Sport kit comes with a 7378 3/16" axle.

The difference in setups is going to be dependant on the shock shaft. FanRC shocks are 1.32 shafts which will require the spacers but the worlds rere came with 1.02 shafts and thus used much thinner spacers. I would have to assume with Marks setup he is using 1.32 shafts since that is a lot of space...

3 1/8 spacers on Mark's car is probably correct with 1.32 shafts using the outer arm hole. 5/8 is for when you use the 2nd from outside arm hole.

We quit kitting ours in December to make room for mip. I have a plan going forward but can't commit to it until I know for sure what Eustace is doing

Yep, all of the above. The braces are being machined, same with the pulleys. Shims are already stocked and towers are already on the website.

Plastic yes, bleeder no (from what I can see in pics)
