The B5 turnbuckles are supposed to be the same length as the B4.

The B4 turnbuckles will fit just fine, you can go with part #1282 which is the full set or the Jconcepts set as well.

Whaaaa? The B-Max shares some similarities...but I see very little Rango' influence, unless you look at the steering knuckles-

I think all the cars in mid configuration pretty much look very similar...

However, the B5 rear motor is very unique because its a car specifically designed to be a rear motor car only.

Ummmm, everything? :lol:

No really, in the pics is as far as I have gotten so far... I surveyed a few packages... The shocks are a little different and the idler gear in the transmission is bigger that I can see so far. Those are the only things I can think of that might have similar qualities to the B4.2 I guess. The transmission case is shaped a little differently compared to previous Stealth Transmissions. The idler is offset a little more. As far as the shocks go... Seems to be cosmetic differences in the caps so far.

I have heard the diff gear is different... but I have not counted the teeth on it yet. Looking at the T-Case it looks huge. Could be an optical illusion.
