    After reading this, I decided to roll the dice and order another discounted BBX from Tower. I guess this way I'll be ahead of the game a little, should I get a similar email of doom from my February order. Another benefit is now I can run the snot out of one of them guilt free. I doubt I'll have the good luck you did, with it shipping days later, but it's worth a shot. I hope I don't have to worry about this situation with my other 5 pre-order/backordered models . . .

    All my running gear arrived and is ready to go:

    Where did you find the LF2200? I can't seem to find them anywhere ...

    The updated arms are 2.6mm in diameter. If you look at the TA05v2 you can see the sizes. I'm not entirely sure what arms are from the TB EVO IV reversible arms but probably similar.

     

    Here's the TA05 reversible suspension arm kit. Note the 4 shafts below the wheel axle and they have a flatten spot. That's where the set screws from the C hub and the rear hub meet and holds the shafts in place instead of the older e-clips.

    Yeah that sounds about right. Just measured my M04L beetle with the rear posts turned around (so they are the same as the S2000) and I get about 10", unfortunately the M08 is only 8" and that's really the only option for the 239mm wheelbase unless you want to custom make something or go with magnets.

    I guess you can let me know who would be interested in buying it :ph34r:

    Unfortunately not. Nearly all have the front mount on each chassis are inline with the front axle, but there is 2-3 options for spacing of the rear mounts on m chassis cars. Kitset bodies have pre drilled holes, but the (#47×××) lightweight bodies and now some of the bodysets (#51×××) don't have pre drilled holes. 

    The M08 only has one option for the rear mounts, (if you use the mount stabilisers) which correlates to which wheelbase you decide to use.

    Measure the distance of the holes on each body and I will let you know if they fit an M08.

    Otherwise you can acquire an M04 👍 

     

    It's about 10"

    The thing with the M08 is it pretty much has one option for body mounts, and from memory both those bodies have pre punched holes for the mounts and antennas, so you could be drilling extra holes if they don't fit.

    Hate to be a seagull, but if you decide to sell the S2000 body, I might know a guy... 🤩

    I had thought  all M bodies was pre-drilled so just assumed they should all fit.

    Thank you Madinventor,  I do have the manual. I did put a bearing kit in it when I assembled it and some after market aluminum upgrades on it. I do have original parts that were changed out.  This truck is brand new never used. ( blue )                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   I have been thinking about selling it.  Not sure what it is worth. 

    I would keep it. They are so much fun and very durable.

    I tend to buy hop-ups that actually has a purpose (e.g. adds durability, makes my life easier while I work on the car, or make my car perform better). In the end it's almost always cheaper to get a TRF race car from the beginning than slowly upgrading the plastic counterpart chassis. 

    With that said, I completely understand buying hop-ups for a project which you have a vision for.
