As far as I am aware there is no conversion "off the shelf" for the front end.

Darren, I am guessing what you have in stock is the rear axle conversion (UMW502 IIRC), if it isn't then please let me know as I still have about 20 pairs of B4 front wheels!!!

i don't think so as the bearings are in the hubs on the RB5 like on a losi, and in the wheels on the B4.

I looked at making B4 wheels fit, as the offset etc. isn't far off at all, but never got around to it.

How many sets of 2wd fronts do you need anyway? I've got 7 pairs of front wheels and that has enabled me to do a seasons worth of meetings without ever having a problem relating front wheels / tires!

I know what you mean, it saves having to buy more wheels etc thats all..and duplicating tyres etc

I use B44/B4 Rears on my B4 & BMAX, and B44 fronts on the BMAX...

Just thought someone may have done something like the Factory Team B4 items..

I think B44 front is losi hex. That's why is someone has a losi hex for RB5, it will be great.
