Just a note.. Johnathon told me the engraved 's4' in the front shock tower won't be in the final kit as it costs quite alot to do.

Enjoy!

Will that front tower work with the associated shocks ok? It looks nice and beefy, which is good as i keep breaking the standard jconcept ones...!
Are they gonna be released soon :-D

Losi and AE front shocks are the same, so Yes, it will work with the AE shocks on a standard BJ4

Craig, the front and rear towers fit the standard BJ4 AE shocks, the front and rears are both from 4mm carbon fibre, and i have them in stock at the moment.

The S4 towers do use revised shock angles which are different to the standard BJ4 setup, but i can give you the setup we use with the Losi shocks and convert it across to the AE shocks.

Best chasis I ever see! I really like it, the curved walls have to make wonders in terms of rigidity and durability.

Really good job. Could you make something simillar for Yokomo MR-4BX? I like your job very much, but hate shafts.

looks very "exotic" but i can't help thinking what a nightmare the batteries will be!

The batteries don't really cause any problems, you just build them up in sets of two, with a connecting wire to go over the shaft and a wire so that you can put the other two cells in the forward location.
