associated b4 help needed please folks

[mikef350]

hi all

This is ny first step up to a decent buggy after being into olds hook tamiya and nitro models.

I bought a second handassociated b4 buggy and set about rebuilding it with lots new parts.its the stealth kit version with some nice factory team parts fitted and I intend to start racing with it this year so my question is can the newer b4.2 parts fit this buggy and is it worth doing

best advice get racing with what you have enjoy it its a damn good car and you wont relly see much improvement if you invest in it by trying to upgrade

look round where your going to race most see what the locals race and if it takes your fancy try a different newer chassis

yes a lot of the B4.2 parts will fit straight on. Not the shell without the chassis change too mind.

The only real note is towards the diff/gearbox as the .2 has metric bearings and the earlier (non .1 or .2) models had imperial.
