Re: 60th Anniversary Joel Johnson Ultima?!?!

Very cool! I’ve just finished up my replica Magnificent! Curious, how do you feel about this re-re? You did all of the hard work to recreate the legend, and now any idiot with a credit card (me, for example) can have one. On a serious note, from what you can see in the photos, how accurate is the r...

Re: ID this RC10T

That high of ratio ehh? I was thinking around 21-22t. It’s. Reedy radon 15t motor The original 10T has a 2.25:1 transmission ratio, while newer trucks have 2.4 or 2.6 ratios. So you can't directly compare the pinion size to that of newer trucks. As a general baseline, something in the 10-11:1 overa...

Re: ID this RC10T

for a vintage rc10t and using 15t brushed motor, what pinion do you think i should use? using 87t stock spur An 18 or 19T should be close. If using lipo, I'd consider 17T. Actual usage type will also effect this. Things like grass put more load on the motor, requiring a lower gear ratio. And then t...

Yes, later 10T's had the back arms, same as used on the T2.

Most of my 10T's ( 4 of 5) have those arms. The other has the V2 white arms.

ID this RC10T

Recently picked this 10T up… Am I correct in thinking that this is one of the last runs of the original 10T design? Chassis is a C stamp and has all black parts as you can see.

Re: Modified Duratrax shocks

I have a set of the short fronts on one of my cars. I used a modern X ring instead and haven't had any issues. Got a link to some of these X rings ? I just used the ones from this. https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas-shock-rebuild-kit-tra2362/p45156?gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwjMiiBhA4EiwAZe6jQ8GkfTvs...
