After months of looking for a brand new phobia body, I became impatient and decided to use my spare bk2 body (which is in very good condition).
I fitted a new cr gearbox cover as the original clear ones are a bit flimsy and not all that great at keeping the dirt out. I also reverted back to the original kinwald blue motor plate. The trinity one looked nicer but had those grooves and didn't really seal very well, also letting dirt in.
Here's a pic after its first run since the rebuild! It runs as smooth as silk, super quiet gearbox compared to how it was. Lots of fun over a local gravel/dirt car park!
and with the phobia body
