Re: Diff spring vs clutch spring
No, not the same. It was probably a good idea to replace the thrust spring anyways. If they loose tension, it can cause the diff to run loose and damage it. Damn. Well, thank you. Guess we’re back on hold. This is my last step major step before firing the thing up for the first time in 25 yrs. So c...

Diff spring vs clutch spring
Hey guys. Took apart the transmission of my 10t to clean it up, assess the condition, and throw in some new bearings... in the process, I noticed my diff thrust spring (that goes in the drive shaft) is missing. I have one on order, but I’m wondering if it’s the same as the spring on the assembly tha...

Re: Tires for 3-piece wheels
BTW, a quick old-guy “get off my lawn” moment: what a load of crap by the RC wheel companies to try and make wheels “disposable” and having to glue your tires.
I realize that’s probably a very old take, but it’s new to me. Lmao. Guess I’ll grab a cheap heat gun somewhere to remove them.

Re: Tires for 3-piece wheels
Factory Works rear hex adapters fit the 1/4" axles. There are a few options for the front. I believe that the Custom Works front conversion fits with few modifications. I also have a 10T that uses Traxxas parts. They also require some grinding. I only tried it because I had the parts laying ar...

Re: Alternative parts
Man would that be helpful. I’ve kind of been searching for something like that. Seems like you just have to search out specifics here and there. The hard part is when you find a thread that describes exactly what you need, they link to the part without otherwise describing it, and it’s now a dead li...

Tires for 3-piece wheels
So, is it impossible these days to find tires for the old 3-piece wheels? Starting to realize from threads that most modern tires apparently don’t work. Was hoping I wasn’t going to have to convert my 10t over to 3/16, but is that the only or best way at this point? And, does anything need to be don...

Getting back in... rear hub carriers / CVDs
Hey everyone. Just another "dug out my car for the first time since I was 15" guy here, getting back into things. It's an RC10T. First off, thanks for all the great info here. I've been digging for days getting myself back up to speed. I think I've been able to figure out most of what I ne...
