Never heard of a mid4 made by either brands (or any others by the way)

Hirobo Alien mid4 is the closest I can imagine but not sure if you're post isn't playing tricks with my brain now

Alien mid 4 by hirobo is what you are describing.

It's a nice 4wd off road. One that I'm very fond of!

You can by repro shell and declaw on ebay.

Also, rc broc auto on ebay has parts, but only a limited selection.

Depends on how much work needs to be done. Wheel fitment is quite specific making rims difficult to find or even seek alternatives. You can try wheels from its predecessor (Zerda) as they could be a little easier to find.

None as far as I'm aware.

This may give you an idea of what you could do.
