Associated RC18 B and T top plate: Are they different?
I'm converting one of my RC18Ts into a B. Do I need a different top plate for the B? The manual says they are the same, but on the plate I have there is no front body mount. What top plate do I need?
Thanks!
Thanks!

pretty much the same. I'm using the rc18b plate on my rc18t currently. A little different, but same fit.

Thanks for the post. This morning I ordered a new plate. What differentiates the B from the T/MT plate is the body mount at the front end on the B plate. And since I'm going to be running a B body I need that mount.
By the way, interesting battery setup!

the body mounts for the B shell are on different shock towers, not on the top plate[8D]. Thout I would let you know

That's what I thought but its not correct. Only the rear tower has a mount. The front mount is on the top plate. I discovered this when I did the tower swap. I have the proper plate on order so all will be well soon.
