Cheers Mark,

Yes I will be running it. It wont be for a few weeks though. I have a front and rear roll bar set for it ready to try, but I will run it without first to see how it runs.

Also need diff covers, but struggling at the moment to get any...... :-(

I will up date as soon as Ive run it Mark.......

I had a couple of those motors, 10 x 2s. I know Insideline Models had some a few years ago.

They even looked too good to use.......

Hi Dave,

Its not for the sides of the diffs. I know what you mean, for the sides of the ball diffs to cover the balls.

These are diff covers, that fits under the bulkheads and shock towers. I know Fredrik used to make them, but struggling to get any at the moment matey.

Thank you though Dave............
