Moved it for ya.

Thank you!

Thanks! I'll look into that.

I'm modding/modernizing the steering on a re-release Tamiya Subaru Brat using a 3D-printed centered servo mounting kit and a Tamiya hi-torque servo saver. I'm trying to make this look as OEM Tamiya as possible, or at least Tamiya-esque and not obviously hacked together. The servo saver has 3mm holes...

Cool. Thank you!

Interesting. Thanks, gents!

Any idea why it was made this way if it needed clearancing like that right out of the box?

I've ended up with two flat graphite plate chassis after years of eBay purchases but I don't know who makes either. This one looks like a pretty basic design that was popular back then, but the issue is the front end: It's not cut with enough clearance for the front arms. Neither the classic narrow ...

This one is made for trailing arm rear suspension.

I recall it being pretty nicely designed and it went together well but the chain drive seemed a bit janky to me. I wasn't into nitro at all but I wanted something different to build and so...

Is there a difference between the metal uprights that come on the SRB chassis cars vs the ones on the Frog/BRAT besides the included steering ballstuds? SRB part numbers 19808262/9808262 https://i.imgur.com/m778pk5.jpeg ORV part numbers 19808036/9808036 https://i.imgur.com/vH6g1gY.jpeg Thanks.

Has anyone bought/used these Fan RC parts and can report on their quality? I've never heard of them before. Thanks.

Nice. Is the old switched speed controller and servo there just for classic looks?

Are the brass inserts necessary?

Tempting, so very tempting...

Is the ball/pin end of an RC10 dogbone/universal/CVD/CVA the same size as a newer 'metric' kit outdrive?

You've got the rear arm mounts on the wrong sides. FYI.

I recall seeing YFS hardware on either RC10s and/or Losi JRX-series vehicles back in the late 80's/early 90's, yes.
