T4 into X-6?

[sime46]

I'm wanting to order an X-6 but like an idiot I had a hissy fit last time I ran my B4 and sold it. Now with hindsight I should have kept it and converted it into the X-6. Here is the question. Can I use my T4 truck as the donor? I know the wishbones and shocks are no good but I have some spare B4 wishbones and a set of losi threaded shocks. Please help me as I NEED an X-6 desperatly since I had a go with one.

You'll need B4 turnbuckles and B4 CVD's but other than that i think it should be ok.

Parts used are:

Front end
rear hubs with CVD's and turnbuckles
transmission internals
Certain hardware from the donor car

So it should be ok.

I think Josh got most of it... just going through myself trying to be complete. Given a T4, an X - 6 conversion kit, and some sort of buggy shocks, you'd need the following:

*B4 front arms
*B4 front tower
*B4 turnbuckles (all 6)
*Perhaps B4 outer hinge pins, depends on the truck you have. If its got the GT2 front end on it, the outer front hinge pins would not be long enough (they got rid of the spacer that normally goes behind the caster blocks on a B4).
*B4 CVD bones (probably should get the BK2 axles while you're already ordering stuff)
*B4 front axles (they're shorter than the truck's)

I think that about covers it.

Cheers chaps. The losi shafts are the ones to go for it seems. I have a mate who may be able to help out with those. I fancy the k factory tower for the front (if available) and rayspeed rear hubs?

You'll also need the buggy spur gear

Go straight to a 78 spur on an X6, better for clearances.
