Default 4wd conversion kit?

Has anyone heard anything about it yet? Whether they are going to even come to North America? I have axles sitting here waiting for parts. And while I am not in any hurry to go out and buy the parts separately. I do want to eventually fill them.

Well, they already sell the 4wd model in the US. Also, they make a fully assembled diff unit that can be dropped into the axle, then you just need a slider to connect that to the tranny. There's about three threads on here with part numbers and steps to do it, the trick is that everyone wants the parts, so they tend to go fast when anyone gets them in stock. Good luck.

Yes, but sounds like Outcastrc wants the HPI complete kit that is bound to be released in the USA and Canada soon.

I see tower has it listed http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXRXY9&P=0 but in May . The people i spoke with at HPI said the complete unit with axle cases was only to convert the 2wd trucks to 4wd. but who really knows.

Yah I am in no hurry to source parts. I'll just get 2 kits when they become available. Should be cheaper as well.
