Ok, I couldn't find any of the B4 inline axles and knuckes so I ordered some online. We'll see if it fixes the wheel rubbing.

Ok, I used the following parts to fix the steering. I think this setup works much better than the stock B4 axles and knuckes.

9577 - Steering Blocks Inline
9623 - FT B4 Front Inline Axles

Great build, RichieRich! :D I like the GT front bumper with the new ae logo - adds a nice touch to the old-but-newer theme.

Good info on the optional inline B4 front setup. Just as an FYI… In my case, I stuck with the offset knuckle/trailing axle setup and just chamfered the front edge of the arms slightly (similar to the original RPM arms).

Thanks for the compliments guys! I also thought about shaving the front arms a bit, but to fit with my "bolt-on" theme, I decided to use the inline axles, etc. I think we should have a thread dedicated to everyone's dynotech RC10s. Maybe a couple of pics so we can see everyone's work in one thread. Good idea? The other thread is just too long though filled with tons of useful info.

i just wrote something similar on my thread. i don't think it would hurt to start a new thread with a couple of pic of each. like you said, the other thread had gotten long and is more of a spot to get excellent info to set started.

Can you please also advise me the total length for the dynotech front arms? Also, is the RPM Team Edition front arms the same length as the DynoTech? I can't seems to find the RPM Worlds rear...any other alternative beside DynoTech rears cos i'm always ordering my stuffs via RC Boyz. Otherwise, i'll have to order from DynoTech and do they do Inetrnational shipping? Its $9 per arm or a pair? Thanks so much!!! I'm really crazy about these new hybrid builts!!!

they mailed my sets to canada, so maybe. not like canada is over seas so i'm not 100% on that. seems like each store down there has their own rules, but for the most part are pretty good.
