The hubs won't fit the 410. The wishbones are different.

Good effort with the kit page, time well spent me thinks.

Couple of questions.

Can the rear hub and captured pin drive shaft be crossed over the the DEX410 but with the 61mm driveshaft being used instead of the dex210`s 65mm shaft?

What does the team think or prefer, Ball diff or the geared diff?

what size is the kit spur gear and is it the same design as the 410?

Thanks in advance.

Good god am I glad I preordered as well.

Any chance of getting front axles to fit associated wheels or is the offset different? It would be nice to be able to use what I have. Rear wheels should fit if you remove the hex, no?

One minor and quick question from a newbie just about to receive his first decent car...

What size turnbuckle wrench should I purchase for use with the 210..?

Cheers!

If the turnbuckles are the same size as the 410 you'll need a 4mm wrench.

Open-ended 4/5mm Britool miniature open-ended spanner duly purchased on eBay...

(Cheaper than most turnbuckle wrenches, too.)

Am sure there'll be alternatives.

Cars at these levels should be built with proper tools rather than the small bent Allen keys. It doesn't have to be expensive, I have just bought some of the hpi tools and they were only £5 each.

I agree got a full set of allen drivers, just didn't have the right size turnbuckle wrench. Was just pointing it out as he said he was a newbie

Can't wait for the kit to arrive from SMS... I guess France will not be the first to receive the kits.

Adam,
Are the optional rear hubs going to be like the stock rear hubs in terms of using the insert to adjust toe angle?

+1 I'm really glad I pre-ordered one as well - this car will be the best build yet for me I think! Well worth the money!

I'm sure TD have thought it through, but I was just wondering how well the inserts would stand up to the hard use: Won't the suspension become sloppy (because there now are additional seperate parts everywhere in the suspension, or the other way around, inserts become stuck inside the uprights, hub suspension blocks etc. due to dust, dirt and grit?
