Kyosho 405 T16 wheelbase ?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

i have a Kyosho EP chassis ( actually with a very bad Ford Escort RS body ) that i wanted to convert into a 405 T16,

so before buying the 405 T16 body i need to know the wheelbase of the original GP Chassis

thanks guys.

Hi mate, sorry for the delay, I thought this would have been answered already.....

I checked my RS200, which is the exact same chassis as the 405, and the wheelbase by my eye measurement is about 266mm.... but the box, which is what Kyosho believes, has marked a wheelbase of 270mm. So I'd say budget for 270mm, with a little 'wiggle-room'.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Incredible_Serious

as i were thinking, the GP 405T16 wheelbase is shorter than my EP Escort ( 270mm )

so i have to mod the rear arms to adapt the 405 T16 body

Officially, the chassis IS 270mm.... according to the RS200 box, anyway. So it should fit, or be close enough that nothing really needs to be done.
