Ellis X6 kit & Old B4/X6 - What do I really need.

[andys]

Hi.

I've pre-ordered the Ellis X6 kit to update my 1st gen X6.

I know the kit comes with lots of extra bits, but what if anything should I replace as I build the kit up from my old X6, as i'll be using all the b4 parts from my old X6 to go with the new X6

I have already sorted:

All new gears / idler gear for the gearbox.
A full set of new bearings.
New front wishbones.

Is there anything else (B4 wise) I should really be replacing on the new build ?

Thanks.

Andy.

Rod ends? Always good to change to reduce slop, I'm a big RPM fan for these. Other than that's you're covered

Hi Dan.

Will be running it at the next Bury indoors (Jan 24th I think) See you there ?

If I bought an Ellis Kit and new front arms, I'd spend the two bucks on a new bulkhead. The hinge pins holes from the original are probably egg-shaped.

Cheers Dan
Might super glue up the old servo saver too, rather than replacing it, I know that's one of your 'top-tips'

Just don't want to buy anything that I don't really need, also don't want to forget to get anything I do need !
