mad scientist conversion idea
 
random rc related question. is it possible to convert a 4wd road car into an offroad racer? not actually going to do it, was a mad scientist moment of thought.

OK, so after alot of thought, I am thinking I need to change wheels and tyres for some buggy ones, switch the suspension for some buggy suspension and use a truggy shell so the shell doesnt clash with the longer suspension arms :)

was done in the past, a couple of companies even sold conversion kits for the TC3 (RC Product Designs & Durango) and that's also kind of how the JConcepts BJ4 started life.
These days, still technically possible but never worth doing

not worth doing now, my girlfriend wants my road car to play with when I get my new buggy lol :)

cheaper to sell it and buy something else
parts needed
wishbones front and rear
drive shafts front and rear
new camber links front and rear
new shocks front and rear
new shock towers front and rear
thats just to start with

Im keeping it for drifting, and buying an offroad buggy for racing with you guys :) I think its going to be an associated B4 :)
