Convert ET410.2 to EB410.2

[SIlverbeardRC]

I understand a lot of the parts between the ET and EB 410.2s are identical.
Is it possible to convert the ET to an EB, or are there some significant differences that would prevent it?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Everything to narrow, and shorten the height of an ET410... I'd say it's a straight forward EB410 conversion for someone to do. Arms, turnbuckles, CV bones, shock towers, shocks, body mounts, etc.

@RustyUs - Thank you! I'm undecided whether to keep the ET410.2 as is (it was a gift) and just acquire an EB410.2, or to try and convert it. Having more RC is never bad, right?
Where in Central, PA are you? I'm originally from State College.

You are correct. I don't think you can ever too many RCs.

If you put both EB & ET manuals side by side, and start a list of what's needed for conversion... the shocks and CV bones will probably be the biggest cost. Instead of buying parts separately, maybe chop shop price is good for front/rear set of shocks... https://www.ebay.com/itm/2859375115...ojIQ73P90V2ydDqMSlU10qjGMA%3D%3D|ampid:PL_CLK

I like the 410 RCs from Tekno a lot. So much so, I put the ET410 at the top of my 1/10 scale "most fun", "dream come true" lists. The ET410 is what lead me to buying other Tekno platforms. When the SCT410SL came out; sharing parts from other 410s, I knew I had to have it. The thing drives so well, I grabbed another SL to run when the first one is down for maintenance. I'm doing the same for the ET410 side of things... I'm getting ready to crack the seal on the ET410.2's box that's been sitting around.

I'd love to have an EB410, but my backyard track is really rough for lower ride height RCs. I sold my 1/10 scale B4 buggies some time ago as they would be tossed around too much being smaller, and lighter. I don't want to put the time/effort into track grooming just yet.

I'm roughly 60 miles east of State College.
