Sorted out the springs to keep my OCD happy

I never had one on these as I was an OS guy but they look like a great little engine. This one came in a bulk lot of stuff and while fairly clean could still use some help. 20240314_221501.jpg Engine all stripped down, the sleeve was pretty stuck and I had to use a heat gun to get it out. The inside...

Since someone decided to pull the pullstart off and lose it I just so happened to stumble across one of these kits. 20240315_223231.jpg I'm surprised it came with a new crank, OS just told you to grind the starter pin off the crank. The new crank is standard length so you'd still have to cut it down...

The ABC sleeve is nice, no wonder they were so popular, probably a better engine than the CZ/CV. The bearings also cleaned up surprisingly well with a bit of love. I tried something a bit different and used cutting oil to work the bearing followed by a solvent bath. This seemed to work better than j...

What are the light up cubes that the Bandits are sitting on?

Metal parts like the motor plate won't thread unless you re-tapped them to 3mm. The upper shock mounts and steel balls in the shock ends won't fit 3mm unless you change them, and any through hole will be tight and need to be opened up.

What do they offer for the 5-40 threaded screws? 4mm?

Team Moo 20240409_184130.jpg TeamMoo.JPG Is that 2nd pic your truck, or a magazine pic of the original Team Moo RC10GT? Gravel is the same as the top pic, Knowing RJ that’s definitely his truck, has definitely dropped a bomb with this one, glad my next build isn’t finished, no chance against this b...

Great build. Could you post your settings of the turnbuckles and toe links please Thanks, not too much adjustment on these but this is what I ran. The steering rack is a standard Factory Works steering rack, all I did was shim it to eliminate bump steer. I didn't get a chance to try shorter links w...

The expression on your neighbours face when they come over would be priceless

ESC installed, and put the white wing on. The pink one is with my body painter so as he can match the paint. https://tcphotos.net/images/2024/04/13/IMG_8104.jpeg https://tcphotos.net/images/2024/04/13/IMG_8105.jpeg Dont know if I pasted this, but the stack of header cards show how many parts I had ...
