The plastic plugs look like the ones used to set up the power program and current limiting on LRP ESCs.... this is from the V7.1 ESC manual:

I've seen the round heatsinks before, but don't remember where, sorry.

Thanks! If anyone can use those current limiting plugs send me a message. I want to say the round heatsink is Hot Trick but not sure.

Round heatsinks make me think of Victor Engineering.

Well, just by chance, I found the other heatsink.... fits a TP ESC... a friend of mine just got this one today.

Understandable I couldn't pick it.... I've had the ESC before, but never seen the heatsinks!

Definitely a Mcallister lowering kit, which would do both ends of the car. Pretty typical to have all the Andy's parts (bumpers/body mounts, arms) on an oval car. That stuff was the easiest way to mount a wedge body. Not a full "kit" though. Just old school option parts.

I bought a RC10 parts lot and these front a-arms were included in the purchase. I can't find any information about them. I tried searching on here, on Google and with Google lens.

The arms seem well designed except the hinge pin holes are off-center. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks, Chris

These stub axles are very worn out, but I'm curious who would have made aftermarket yellow zinc plated steel 1/4" rear stub axles. Judging by the amount of wear, they might be softer steel than the AE parts.

I've had a few (worn) sets on cars I have bought - are you sure they arent titanium? I remember them being very light weight.

Im pretty sure Tecnacraft made the ti ones, if that is what they are. It would explain the wear, not a good place for titanium.

Titanium makes sense, at least it makes sense that they were intended to be a weight savings. I remember there being Ti dogbones, but didn't remember the stub shafts.

Phin is correct that Parma sold them but they also came with my Killer buggy which was a Fox clone. I believe that was Bluebird (the entire kit is unbranded including the box). I'm sure they probably ended up under several names in different lands.
