Just picked one up and have been cleaning it and rebuilding it so far, but it looks different with gold aluminuim on it and arms

Anyway I just want to see pics of yours to get an idea compared to myn...Thanks Derek

Can you put some pictures up? We'll be able to let you know whats different, by the sounds of it any gold bits are non-stock, also aluminium arms are different and should be changed ASAP.

The pictures of the red car in the other thread look like it's 100% stock

got them up what do you guys think...as you can see still putting it together for cleaning. Post yours up guys!

Richard Lowe · #4 28-09-2009

That's standard apart from the alloy arms and wierd looking battery posts, the gold bits are the standard parts but anodized

So its good then? Also my cvds look like they are going to pop out lol is that how they are made...meaning they site at the edge of the drive cup? Post pics of your bj4's guys

Richard Lowe · #6 28-09-2009

You should have one droop limiting plastic washer inside the rear shocks, the fronts you run without. The rear's will be close to the edge of the outdrive but they won't pop out as everything is so stiff.

is that the white round piece in the shock? Did i score good with this bj4?

anyone? Opinions? Lmk what you guys think

the car is fine, you just need to replace those alluminium arms to original plastic ones! get it set up and hit the track

uglykidjoe · #10 05-11-2009

I have to agree with the above post. Great Chassis. I still run my one indoor and outdoor. But replace the arms to the plastic ones

Enjoy your ride

Here are my pics of my BJ4 original. Have a Castle creations sidewinder and 5700Kv motor in it but will probably switch to a Novak system for next summer. Chassis is also a bit (Very slightly) twisted so I have a spare on the way. Run it on a large dry, dusty, blown-pout track out doors. 35W oil w/blue springs up front, 30W oil w/green springs in the rear. No major hop-ups at all. This buggy still runs fine for its age and is competative at a club level

Heres my BJ4, as can be seen in the mini corespondence I made in this section.

Loved this car to bits, quite gutted I got rid of it! Absolute tank and went like stink!

uglykidjoe · #13 13-11-2009

Hey Paul.
I thought I recognized that shell. Are you using one or two front shock towers? What a buggy. I remember trying to decide on a 4WD buggy that used a stick pack and this seemed the obvious choice. I love it

I think I will try the solid shaft instead of the one way this season

Here are my pics of my Bj4 WE, But will race a Bj4 original next year in the Danish championship......

uglykidjoe · #15 13-11-2009

LOL, I just paid baout $85.00USD (including 5 day shipping) for a new chassis for my original BJ4 off the Jconcepts site and I noticed they have the original kit for $300.00USD. Man, I could have just shelled out the extra 215.00 for the whole thing

KBRacing · #16 13-11-2009

I just order one for $300.00USD, for next year.......

uglykidjoe · #18 18-11-2009

Ya, New Chassis just came in the mail from Jconcepts for my original BJ4. A bit pricey, but well worth it

Brown front springs and long front camberlink?! That must have mad steering

I just used the one front tower, I crackeda couple but never broke any, car was a true tank!
Been considering another for when funds allow!
