Default Turnbuckle size for E hangers

Hi

I am going to get some E hangers but I have been told that I need shorter turnbuckles too to accomodate this. Does anyone know what size turnbuckles I need. Better still does anyone have some at a good price. Thanks
Arvi

1 3/4" or roughly 43mm turnbuckles required. Dms do the Lunsford ones pretty cheap. Less than a tenner I think.

1 3/4 sounds a bit long to me. More like 1 3/8. Check with Darren -- he knows.

Chazz

Is this with the standard ball ends ie associated ones or losi cos need to do the same want to be long enough that they dont pull out but so i cab still make adjustments for all settings - even if it means getting 2 sets

Also does the new kits come with aluminium servo mounts and is the chassis plastic - might have to ask Darren

Jamie,

As you rightly mention, the length oif the turnbuckles needed will vary depending on what ballends you are using (Losi, X-Factory, AE, RPM, J Concepts etc) and also whether your set up is running in the inner or outer hole on the hub carrier at the back too

With regards to the complete kits, they come with AE standard servo posts and the plastic chassis is included in them too.

Chassis specs for the 2wd buggies are as follows;

K019 - X6 Sq Conversion for B4 - Graphite chassis
K020 - X6 Sq Ellis Spec conversion for B4 - Plastic chassis
K021 - X6 Sq Entire Car kit - Plastic chassis

The only other optionis the Plastic "Saddle" chassis which is a machined version of the standard plastic one which is an "option" for all three versions for those running saddles....
