Yeah, I guess so. I will just use a screw and nut on the trans case for the other hole.

Great project! Can't wait to see more! Are you needing a decent set of rims?

Shoot me a PM with what you have.

I suppose you could get a re-release motor plate, it's suppose to work with both transmissions or you could wait for a CE (stealth version) plate to pop up like I did.

Well I figured out what direction I am going with the shocks. Got these on the way from an rctech member.

FT b4 v2 shocks. Not big bores but these should do well for now. Now to figure out the right shock towers.

RC Carbon works: worlds "extended" front tower & worlds short rear tower. The B4 front shocks are longer than the originals, the rear shocks are shorter.

Thank you JK, was just looking at their website.

Now to come up with some funds.

Shocks are here. Need a little clean up, but look fairly new and feel smooth.

RC Carbon Works stuff is great! I pretty much have them on most of my cars. You can't go wrong.

Little mock up after all the parts are now black.

Probably going to be after Christmas before I get any of it. But I will post more as I get parts in and get them on the car.

Are you even using any of the stuff you got from Rctech originally?

Since it is an A stamp, I think I may leave it the way it is. May build it up later as a once in a while runner.

Parts are in for the B stamp racer build!

Now I just need to seal the edges of the carbon fiber towers and rear brace and start building.

Do you still need a motor plate? I won two stealth transmissions off of eBay and each one came with a black motor plate. Since my ReRe racer I was able to use the kit gold plate, I have an extra. Let me know, I'll mail it to you if you need it.
