Is it necessary to switch to the B4 slipper? That spur is a 75 and the pinion is 28.

It's necessary if you need to use the slipper, the stealths stock slipper adjusts itself all the time, the b4 v2 never does and you get to use b4 spurs

I will see how this works and if i dont like it i will switch to the b4 unit. These old school buggies just look so much meaner than the new buggies!!!

Just waiting on the shock bodies now and this will be ready. I need to paint the body and mount the wing.

Mike, look into the JC 6.5 High Clearance wings, they're not as durable as I would like but they really help keep the rear planted on the 10
