The rear track width is about 4mm less than a B4. It's really hard to see with the naked eye. I measured it using rims without the tires on both cars. The front is about 4mm less too. If you use original RC10 front carriers, axles and steering blocks you are going to wind up way short...about 10mm off. That's why I used the B4 carriers and steering blocks.

Can i check with you if the Dynotech rear arms are longer than the stock arms? If so, what's the difference? Thanks. David

Yes, they are longer than the stock arms. That's what allows the use of B4 wheels since it makes up for most of the offset. I'm not sure what the actual difference in length is but I will measure them for you unless someone beats me to it.

That'll be GREAT! I need to know the length difference between the two. Thanks.

The stock rear arms are 55mm and the dynotech arms are 71mm in length. Of course, this is total length not center of hinge pin hole to the other.

I was wondering if you all had decided if the rear RPM hubs or the Losi hubs were better? Or which one is best/easier to adapt?

There has been people using both. I used the Losi hubs because of all the camber link position options they give you. But on the flip side they are a lot harder to find since they are discontinued. The rpm hubs are still available.

Oh okay, cool thanks, that helps a bunch.

I used the RPM ones as those are easier to find. If you decide on racing, the extra adjustments offered by the Losi hubs may be beneficial.

very nicely done! The RPM hubs will do for now, but I would keep your eye open for a set of losi hubs. I'm still waiting for my body to get painted to take my version of this to the track. I just got my wing today and will throw up some updates later. Glad to see you kept the JConcept rims and those Klein arms white...it was a tough decision for me, but I dyed them anyway. cant wait to see another update from this one.

Well, you guys got me all fired up! I'm building one.

Well, don't forget to post pics when you've got something to share.

Will do.... I just sold my soul to Fibre-Lyte for some graphite goodies... That hurt..... A LOT!!

that may have hurt now, but it's well worth it you will like all of that graphite and it will hurt a lot less once you keep on stearing at it

Ok, I finally have the body in the "paint booth". I started last night and realized I need more paint. Off to the hobby shop after work today.
