Associated T4 Questions

[WillyThickfoot]

Hey guys.I got myself a T4 from a good buddy and know very little about it.It`s a roller in new condition and would like to know the diff between a T4 and a B4.Is there any reason I couldnt put F&R shock mounts off a B4 on this thing and run a B4 body.



Thanks,Dave

The difference between a T4 and a B4 are the shock towers, shocks, front and rear arms, turnbuckles, CVDs, battery strap, chassis, and the front axle spindles (T4 are wider, but not really a big deal).

You could try to fit a B4 body on a T4, but the T4 chassis might be a little too long.

LOL Just a couple differences huh?I like the look of a buggy body much more than a truck.I would hate to buy a body and mounts and it not work.Thanks alot for the info.

It would be easier and less expensive to buy a T4 body http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0095P?FVSEARCH=T4+body&FVPROFIL=++

Had some extra B4 parts in the part box a few months ago and did what your thinking, did put B4 wheels/tires on it.

Did not jump or turn well!!!!

Put the T4 parts back on that night and won Ele truck!!!

You can win with a B4 or a T4.

BUT not a TB4 or is that a BT4 !!!!

Thanks alot for the input guys.I think I`ll leave it as is.I have never owned one and dont know diddley about them. We have a bunch of xxt`s we beat on regularly so I am considering making a shelfer out of this one.Its got cv joint type drive shafts,all new nuts and hex bolts,anodized turnbuckles,(I think) and not a scratch anywhere.Its just really nice.I see lots of real purdy aluminum parts on ebay I may have to buy.
