Don't think the top deck will fit. Steering posts are set further back on the rayspeed chassis compared to the ssg one.
Shock towers will fit straight on.

Pete you are correct you cannot use the top deck if you are not using there chassis plate only the Shock towers

Hi friends. greetings from Malta.

Mark and Pete are correct. The Rayspeed steering pillars are mounted 4 or 5 mm further back.

I have however used a Rayspeed top deck with SSG chassis. You can either re-drill the top deck to locate the steering pillars in the standard position or re-drill the chassis to get Rayspeed geometry.

The Rayspeed geometry will give you more ackerman.

I have just tried a different mod on mine. I have fitted MR4 Special front hubs. Apart from the advantage of having bigger bearings which helps with wild mod motors and a locked front diff and a very grippy track, they also give more ackerman.

I will be trying them later today and will report back.

Its probably good to just get the Rayspeed chassis anyways unless you have an SSG, then you should just keep the SSG.
