Default possible to convert x6^2 to x-60

I have a squared, and was wondering if it could be converted into an x-60.

I can't see any reason why not, you can convert a B4 into a T4 easily enough. It's just a new chassis, shell, rear wishbones and possibly rear shock tower. Then you'd have to get hold of all the T4 parts too.

Don't see why not...

Off the T4 you'll need:
Front shocks and springs,
Front arms,
Front shocktower and body mounts,
Driveshafts,
and Turnbuckles all round.

Off the X60 you'll need:
Rear shocktower and body mounts,
Rear arms,
Chassis,
and the X60 body.

Could be more parts that I've forgotten as well.

Good Luck.

Will also need rear shocks & springs. Truck shocks longer.

You could use the rear shocks/springs off the X-6 on the front of the X-60

In my opinion there are so many things to change that it's usually cheaper (and doesn't stop you using the X6) to buy a used T4 and then just get the conversion. As otherwise you end up with a loads of bits that can't be used and only 1 car/truck. Where as the otherway you still have 2.

Dan has always been the practical one. I think he's right -- no more expensive and probably faster to get a (possibly used) T4 and an X - 60 Kit. Plus you wind up with two great cars. Mo' betta.
