I really appreciate if you can advise me on the below questions.
My project is to install an Rcmax46cc on a well tough built 5b that I will use for both Onroad and Offroad

Please in order to be consistent, kindly advise each point by itself for me not get confused. I'm new to 5b and 2wd platform

#1) Would I be having clearance problems/ fitment issues/clashes installing altogether:
-FLM Extended EFR Arms V2
-Vertigo clip-less Front Axles
-and GTB Type II 4-Pistons Front Hydraulic Brake

or do they just fit fine altogether?


#2) Would I be needing the Vertigo Clipless Rear Axles Extenders as well? (since I already installed the front)

#3) Please see item: http://www.davesmotors.com/hpi-85408-front-hub-carrier-set.html

This is the full front hub carrier set.
what is the best upgrade money can buy?

to be honest it's a bit confusing since some have offered 'one piece' set and honestly I do not know if that set is complete or not.. I don't like to get half a set or 3/4 of a set and then mix it with some set from another company and brand.. you know, and end up having non-compatible items \. it gets confusing..

I'm searching for a full COMPLETE and direct fitment for Front and Rear hub Carriers.
if you can link me, i'd be more than happy


#4) Would the ''Vertigo clip-less Front/Rear Axles'' mentioned above in points 1) and 2) fit in the Front/ Rear Hub Carriers that you have advised me in above point 3)?

#5) Would I be having clearance/misfit issues when 'In the near Future" I install IRP BRP Front/Rear Wheel Adapter hubs with the above recommendations? Even with the GTB Hydraulic Brakes?

I appreciate your answers

thanks in advance

I can tell you I have a king motor 001,, a Baja 5b generally,,,probably over half my car isn't km anymore,,, I just got some darksoul front axle extenders cause I am using integy front disc brakes,, im getting rid of using the clip on the back,, to prevent the wheels from falling off as I drive, they are predrilled and tapped for a m5 bolt,, well after grinding the back side off,,, countersinking the hub and the washer im using,,, I got to fit properly with my rpm arns with no binding,, that's even with some grinding on them for clearance issues,, anyway,, most things will bolt on with no worries,,,,, but expect to have to do some work too,, not everything will fit perfectly... trial and error,, nature of the hobby,,, im sure anyone in this hobby will have extra parts they bought and didnt use or fit
