whats the advantage in using the B5 knuckles on the front ???is only the C hub part of the B5 or the upright to?thanx
some more questions 1.......whats the part number for front arms?? 51414 says the manual but i think there is a mistake. Are the same arm that are fitted on the 503?do both cars share the same front and rear arms? 2.....if i buy a front spare shock tower comes with a unusable rear tower,right ??what part number for rear carbon one? 3.....can i use the rear 12mm ally wheels hex hubs like the one on the 503 on the rear ??whats the part number? 4....front wheels hubs ......do they only take tamiya wheels?how about using other brands wheels? thanx

1) Standard front arm that comes with the XMW is 51411 and it uses the DB01 standard rear arm 51313 2) Yes you have to get the towers as a set.. the XMW rear shock tower is part #3404036 3) Yes you can use the TRF503 rear hex.. the part # is 9804801 4) Yes they only take Tamiya wheels... but Tamiya makes an option so that you can use B4 front bearing wheels as well... but it's much easier to convert the front end to the B5 or RB6 hex conversion..

Just finishing off my build. Hit a small snag with the electronics fitment.
Will I regret grinding off the extra holes at the front of the side guards, just behind the servo? Can't see any use for them in the kit but is there an option to use them for something? Grinding will give me precious extra millimetres of space... The other thing is that "square" LiPo packs don't fit well. Firstly, they won't drop in place because of the rear brace being in the way. Secondly, the battery strap obscures the plugs and you would have to remove quite a lot of material to access them. So this pack will have to go back and be replaced by a pair of saddles - I was trying to avoid having extra wires in the car but it hasn't worked out! At least the wires from the ESC are the same length as for my old B4, should make swapping over to the "spare" car a bit easier. |

How about turning the lipo around ...with connection at the back ??

There is a way around this when using the square pack .. of you replace the rear posts that hold the carbon suppor in the back with Tamiya part# 19804306, they are a little bit thinner in Diameter and they allow the Square pack to be installed and you also do not have to use as many spacers as well... it offers about 2.5mm more clearance for the battery to be installed. I'll take a picture later so show the difference..

What about the holes on the side guards, is it safe to grind them away?

SiR_Dave are this the right B5 axle to use 91406 ?!??
what about the bearings, do the bearings coming with the kit fit the b5 hubs? THANX PS : rant.......wtf with tamiya when they create problems were there should be not ???? Who ever disigned the battery holder didn't realise that using short lipos or saddle packs for that matter would create a problem ? I noticed that peoples do shave away some of the cf from the battery holder around the connection????.....rant finished
