Here's one for you all.... Racing Jack alloy upgrade parts... can anybody ID these???
I think a T-bar bridge/antenna mount/ESC switch mount for a Tamiya F101/F102. The small c-shaped bit goes on the FRP rear t-bar mount, the large part and switch mount replace the front plastic t-bar mount.

The PB Mini Mustang was released 1986 and the tires were released before.
But it´s good you talked about the Mini Mustang as I always forget I also had one.

That's a different one, but yes that is for the Optima. If you notice, there's a hole in the front of the c-hub to mount the shocks.

I'm looking for alloy C hubs and rear carriers for my Optimas...I tried searching for Yokomo 870z parts but found nothing. Anybody happen to have some? :)

Alloy hub carriers and c-hubs for the TF-2, GP Spider, and older GP-10 cars will fit the Optima fine. Companies that made such parts (to my knowledge): GPM (Hong Kong), Paranoia, Cross, Kose, Starex (all Japanese).

Paul,
I had one very similar but not as good of shape as yours show up on a traxxas bullet I picked up several years ago that was all tricked out with aftermarket stuff. Can't find the body right now but it had stickers all over the wing from alot of aftermarket companies on it so if I can find it I'll post up some of the companys on the wing so maybe someone can id them for us.

Ah yea I remember those ones now, but did Trinity make this version also?

I would of thought if they were HPI they'd have metric screw threads?

A&L made one that looked similar, but not with that HPI blurple color ( which I actually like ). The HPI mounts were all for pan cars like the 10L and the HPI conversions- hence the SAE threads.
