I'm trying to anticipate what parts I'll need to complete a c4.1 without gutting my B4. I have most of the bits, but I fully expect there'll be a few fiddly parts I'll need, so would far rather have them ready than discover I'm short halfway through the build!
Anything with a (?) is uncertain, may or may not be included with the kit. Screws: Lots of these, mainly 4-40 sizes as per B4.1 manual. Possible use of metric on the chassis? Maybe some included? Bearings: As per B4.1 manual, note the metric outdrive bearings. Maybe CML will throw some in as Team Xtreme did? Chassis: Bulkhead Top brace Steering assembly and bridge Servo mounts (?) Bumper/skid plate Suspension: Complete shocks (f/r) plus bushings/spacers/screws/lock nuts Front shock tower Wishbones (f/r) Caster blocks (f/r) - either B4.1, B4 or B44 usable in rear. Steering knuckle and front axle Hinge pins (inner and outer, f/r) Turnbuckles and ball cups Ball studs - as per B4.1 manual. Rear CVDs (either B4 or B4.1, both suitable) Conical axle spacer and roll pins Diff: Complete ball or gear diff (metric bearings on outdrives, previously mentioned). Gearbox: Slipper clutch and spur gear Not sure about this - will check B4.1 manual. Will there be many custom bits for this, or just the extra idler gear? Stuff possibly not needed/compatible: Rear T-piece and hinge pin braces, anti-squat shims, rear chassis brace, wing mounts (?) Stuff definitely not needed: Chassis, gearbox case, shell, rear shock tower, motor guard PDFs are currently inaccessible to me, broadband is at dial-up speeds ![]()
