I should try some two hole arms as the front is still on the softer side with #3 piston and 40wt oil.

I think you should anodize the black chassis gold...

CHEVY = Cheapest Heap Ever Varified Yet.

The good thing is purplish parts can always be re-dyed

This will sort of be a step by step rebuild of an OS engine. [/b] I want to check the bearings as I put it away many years ago without after run oil and it was a bit gunky. It ran ok last time I used it a few months ago but it didn't feel 100% right, still feels a bit gunky so I'll go through it an...

If anyone has any questions or wants some more info feel free to ask, I wont bite :D Here we go...... Firstly remove the 4 pullstart screws. OS engines typically use phillips head screws so I must have swapped these out with allen head screws at some point. I can't stress enough to use a proper well...

The only way to remove the piston and rod is at top dead center. Carefully rotate the crank to TDC. 20180218_165915-1024x576.jpg Reach in with a finger and slide the rod out towards you, it may help to grab the top of the piston and bottom of the rod with your thumb and index finger so you can wiggl...

I was thinking exactly the same thing

Well, I finally decided it was time to paint the body for this. I always like the look of vitange and haven't really run the truck much due to the modern look. I found a square body that fit the RC10T4 really well. 6 colors is pretty ambitious for me but I think it came out pretty well... 20180712_2...

That could get real interesting

This Bud's for you My sticker sheet finally came in and was the perfect size so I couldn't be happier. The real truck is sticker bombed to the hilt and I wanted this to look a bit cleaner. All in all I think it came out great. Also, since I can't find strikers these cut Street Trac tires look the p...

Thanks guys. Like Todd I used to watch this sort of stuff on TV all the time.

My favorite was when TNN motorsport was on non stop Friday nights, everything from swamp bugies, to stadium trucks to monster trucks and more.

Thanks for showing both sides of the car

Gas trucks....*sigh*...... great times.......

Pick up a re-re bulkhead to use and put the original away for when you decide to restore it. 1S lipo = 3.7v 2S lipo = 7.4v 3S lipo = 11.1v Stick to 2S 7.4v lipos as thats the "standard" for 1/10 vehicles, you could run 3S if you wanted to but you don’t need it. The Mah is just the capacity...
