Vintage AE's RC10 graphite runner

[nicefrog]

Impressive! mostly that you have a new stealth case.... I really need to work on my parts finding skills. scr8p, does this combo ("i like using the klein/rpm worlds arms, losi/cw hubs, b44 cvd's, and will continue to build runners using that platform") give you the full maximum legal width?

[scr8p]

it's close, but it could be a little wider. i'd have to remeasure mine to give you a definate width.

[Charlie don't surf]

I think it measures out to 9 5/8"-7/8"

[vintage AE]

hey guys, if I used my rear Kline arms and B4 rear hubs, that would make it too long, right?

[scr8p]

probably. you'd most likely have a hard time finding cvd's that would work, too.

[vintage AE]

I got front B44 CVAs, which might just work. I will get it mocked up tomorrow and see how it all fits together.

[vintage AE]

just went down to the work bench and quickly set it up...the B44 front CVA doesn't even reach the out drive.

[scr8p]

the wide custom works cvd's might work. might....... being the key word.

What brand or where did you get the gold mini nuts. I have four of them but I don't know where they came from. I need to get more.

[Quasi]

Never mind about the gold mini nuts question. I believe I found them. I think they are Team Associated part #4449.

Just got back from a vacation and had gold parts waiting for me in my mail box People say women like gold things more than men, but when it come to the guys on here, that's not even close to being true...and for the ladies on here, well umm good luck to your better halfs

I decided on gold front and rear suspension mounts from Atlas, THANKS Atlas! Also got a tranny brace from Atlas too Everything fit nicely, no tight fits. The width for front suspension mounts with the RPM arms were wide enough to insert one spacer, so I chose to put them behind the arm.

Here is some eye candy for now

The tie rods may be from the 6025 graphite kit, bit they are just for mock up. I cant have old and dengy on the final version

Looks like you need some gold shocks! IWHYU! Get rid of the white front body mount, for black!

Looking good!

IWHYU, stop trying to appear all techy I have no idea what it means, you should know better

Yup, I need gold shocks amongst other things! Also, those inner hinge pins are from another buggy, they help bring what I have built already together for photos. I'm hoping to raid your basement for parts soon

I Will Hook You Up!

Hey are those tie rods "rusted" or? They look like the old Tecnacraft golds-
