B4 Stealth up to a B4 FT

[mikeyscott]

I purchased a Stealth B4 second hand and now wondering whether I've made the wrong choice.

What I'm thinking of doing now is selling the B4 Stealth on again and getting a FT kit?

Any thoughts?

You just need threaded shocks, ti turnbuckles and the ali front brace imo. Not too many people use a full graphite car (minus chassis).

It came with the threaded shocks and I've ordered the front brace

I'll look at the turnbuckles

Im runnig a Stealth , and there is nothing wrong with it
the ft will feel no better or worse than your stealth

the only things ive bought is the rymart front and rear bulkheads as im runnig lipo

you dont have to get the Factory stuff

Lunsford do Turnbuckles
and you can get other makes of motor mounts

Big thing the FT has that the stealth hasnt is the heavy duty servo saver spring. its about 1.50
ive cut my spring down and then glued the servo saver in place.

Not really an upgrade if you glue the saver lol.

it can back off - causing understeer
the spring keeps the wheels from flopping about

So the Stealth and the FT have the same servo saver?

Mine just snaps lol, your not putting enough glue in.

BTW if you do glue your saver up make sure you have a spare in case you do break it as if the glue doesn't give the saver will, or the servo.
