Default Dex210 rear to mid motor conversion

Hi, I bought the RTR rear motor at the start of the year and am trying to convert it to mid motor as I mainly drive on astro turf and all the other cars I race are mid motor.

Anybody know where I can get the parts in one place or why NOBODY seems to have the TD709033 shims that are needed in stock???

I have been searching for some for months ( most other uk stores seem to have a combination of the parts but not all of them). And quite frankly am thinking I've bought the wrong car

Can anybody help me or point me in the right direction before I go to another brand?

Is this what you're after? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Team-Duran...item2ecf79a19e

I converted my RTR to midmotor, bought a 'kit' from eBay and it was fine. Only other thing I needed was a 20mm (may had been 25mm) cap head for the motor brace. Durango included most of the other stuff. I personally didnt think it was too bad having to spend about £10 on the idler gears/shims etc was that bad.

You only need the shims if your going to change to 4gear ... All the parts to change to mid motor are in th box, as for the 4gear change aslong as u buy shims of the right size you don't need the durango ones but try mb models cpd racing and inside line racing seem to have bits I had to use a combination of the 3 to get all the parts failing that bud if it's just the shims you need and can't find any of right size any brand iv got a cpl ye can have if you send ye addy iv also got the idler gear pin too as bought two lots cos they ws the hrs thing to get hold of altho I suspect a diff brand would work again aslong as right size
