After purchasing the G320RC, the 4 bolts 30.5cc can now go back to my 5B.


I may use the stock XB shocks in the 5B since I used the 5B shocks on my custom XB.


My custom shorty fuel tank has developed a leak so I'm going back to stock fuel tank. Which means new longer chassis. It will be wider than the one I currently have but keep the baja shorter than stock.

Thanks Gasser!

Will try to keep it to only the parts I already have. But then again that's how it always starts! Lol!
 
Made a thicker (4mm) gear plate (stock is barely 2mm). I also made a transmission plate. All t6 6061 4mm aluminum plate.





The stock tranny plate is only 3 mm thick at the brake level which causes it to bend and create airline cracks leading to failure. Went with 4mm to increase strength.



Assembled

Made servo mounts that will allow me to mount the battery and receiver box above if I choose to go that route.
