Spare parts for B4

[DeadCow]

I'm going to buy a B4 FT and was wondering what spares I should get with it.
I will be racing on one carpet track and one grass/carpet track.

Thanks

[Mike Hudson]

just the usual suspects of most cars out there... front wishbones, front & rear shock towers, front hubs & blocks, think thats about it

[DeadCow]

Thanks, sounds like most of the stuff I've broken on my DB01 aswell...

Get yourself some 30' front caster blocks, blue front shock springs, Schumacher mini-pins for indoors and mini-spikes for outdoors.

Plus what Mike said

front bulkhead and wingmounts

30 degree caster does that give more turn in ??

Ive always remembered it as:

"More castor gives less 'going in' and more 'going out'"
"Less castor gives more 'going in' and less 'going out'"

Standard B4 blocks are 25'.

But funnily enough the B4 tuning guide says the opposite... I think this may be because the car is RWD and so the forces going through the front wheels are different... perhaps connected to the jacking effect seen on karts.

(I have been doing a bit of reading to try and understand why the B4 doesn't work like my 4wd buggies!)

Fits SC10´s gear diff in B4 directly, or is necessary change some parts?
