hi all . I have been looking around here for some time and joind because I need some help . I just pick up a rc10 mip chain drive but no chain , the sprokets are i rough shape . I was hoping that some one knows were to find somthing that will work. or has some idea on part to go with a belt not dig on the belt .
so I do have a cool story on this car . The guy that ownd the car worked a the lhs that helped me in the 80s with my first car and though out the years . frank had this car in the case for all to see I loved to drool over this car thinhing how cool is this . Jump to 2 years ago and sad to say that frank lost his fight with canser, and one of the guys that work there was able to save it from the estate sale . This guy saw that I have a growing collection of vintage car and I now have the car , The hopes are to get this thing back to a nice roller . thanks

If you can figure out what pitch chain you need then you can probably buy replacement from here:

[steve]

fredswain, thank you that link is what I was looking for , so the coler are red and black do i use brass or zink for the chain?

Hey Steve, welcome aboard with a very lucky find there. The sprockets from the Yokomo 834B are the same, same thing for the chain, these should be a LOT easier to find. Good luck.

think i got the pic thing down , still need to do the shock, got a chain coming from custom works will try to get more done and more pics soon

[seth556]

Looks like it's in not too bad shape. Just get that chain and driveline running smooth and you'll have a great car, ether for running or shelfing.

thanks seth. motor plat was bent , diff case craked, front right hud was in two, the shock shafts have big time wear . The sprokets are missing teeth, looking for new is on hold but sdp-si has ones that will work with some mod's 5 buck each not bad. still trying to find out the chain pitch s.a.e. or metric

[steve]
