Why no dimensions listed for parts?

As a relative newcomer to RC, it's driving me absolutely BONKERS that there are very rarely any dimensions listed for parts. Typically parts are listed only with vehicle compatibility. Lame!

What's up with that? And Associated's habit of only using "imperial/SAE" units is really annoying. It's the 21st century, let's use metric! At least metric dims are provided on their website, but the hangtags only show inches.

Certain parts tend to get more measurements given than others. Things like wheels, tires, shock shafts and bearings are usually easy to find measurements for. You'll also find that certain brands do better with this than others.

And while I agree that metric is a much more logical system, I couldn't care less if the measurements are in imperial. Easy to convert between the two.

SAE or metric, I'll take whatever hard dimensional data I can get.
