1 Will the factory
team TC3 center shaft fit on the TC4, and will this reduce the rotating mass
of the drivetrain?
The shafts can be interchanged, as
they are virtually identical. You will not notice any reduction in rotating
mass.

turnbuckles, PTFE ballrace set, antiroll bars, and the large blue motor mount
from the TC3 fit on to the TC4???
blue turnbuckles, No
PTFE ballrace set, Yes
antiroll bars, No

the same on the TC4 as the TC3?
No, they are different.
7 What of the TC3
factory team parts will fit on the TC4?
Bearings and roll bars, although the mounting is a little different.

No. The RTR replaces a Racer series. The initial TC4 kit release is the Team version.
9 Are the TC4 diffs
(and one way) the same dimensions of the TC3? Are they aluminum?
The diffs and one-way are the same dimensions. No, they are not aluminum.

shocks and shock springs on the TC4?
Yes.

21 What new parts
from the TC4 will fit on my TC3?
Chassis braces, steering knuckles, rear hub carriers, shock towers, shafts, drive cups.
22 What is the
effect of adding extra washers under the camber stud?
Adding more spacers will lower the roll center of the car at that end. Your car will tend to have more traction at that end of the car.
23 What benefits or
pitfalls are there to installing a fixed differential in the front TC4 diff
case?? How will it effect the car's handling on a tight carpet track?
You will experience better bite from mid-corner on through the exit of the corner, but you will have less turn-in.
24 The TC4 I just put together has a bad problem in the steering. When I turn the wheels very sharp at all they act like there binding. They shake back and forth.
Turn down your dual rate--you may be over-stressing the servo.
25 Can my TC3 cam
and clamp fit on the TC4?
Yes, you can use the existing cam and clamp.
26 What the stock camber set up for the TC4 front and rear and toe in for the front?
1 to 1.5 degrees.
27 I have upgraded to a 4.5 brushless system. Now it seems like can't put any of that motor to the ground, my diffs slip like nothing else.
Consider switching to the lightweight steel diffs #31128, as they will hold up much better to the HP increase than the stock composite diffs.
28 There are several references to the letters "SO" in the instructions under certain items on the steps.
That is referring you to the Setup Options insert. You should have a sheet with the manual talking about setup options.
