Reggie,

I'm glad that you liked the car and that you've posted pictures of it. I can't wait to see the finished product.

BTW, Assoicated also sold the white fiberglass towers for the yz10....not sure how difficult it will be to find those.

Regards,
Roger

Hey Reg,

I know you mentioned looking for Yok tie tod ends, if you don't care about color/originality, I think the late black traxxas rod ends fit the yok ball. Beefier, too, and designed for metric threads.

I'll double check tonight, but I'm pretty sure I measured both and they were the same diameter.

NIP Litesink from a very good friend of mine 8) and I know the tensioner is supposed to be different, but since I haven't installed the new belts yet, I thought it looked cooler like this
