Re: Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!
I think that would be cool on the hop up runner.
I think I need to start with the basics first. I got myself a set of Associated Team shocks on the way and I paid for a new body with fresh paint that I cant wait to see. The next thing for me is working on the correct wing wire geometry, which I probably wont get to til I get the body. I got the receiver, and brushless system installed. I'm probably going to grab a servo along with some Losi Step Pins from PM Hobby Craft the next time I'm by. If I don't use the Losi tires on the 870c, I will use them on my RC10 runners.

Re: Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!
fronts are really close, 1mm or so. Rears are IIRC about 7mm per side too narrow.
If JC has made new ones since then, that's awesome, but I was originally the one to tell him that the offset was wrong and he changed the ebay description.
I think I probably mentioned all this in that thread.....

Re: Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!
Thanks for the info jwscab! VAE, I will pass on the wheels. I will make my own fronts somehow! I have seen other people narrow and glue custom tires, I think I can do it!!

Re: Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!
I'm sure I will love it. I hear it's a must have for the 870c and appearently very rare, so I had to jump on this. Thank you for posting it

Apparently you can use the updated stealth trust bearing (solid brass) as opposed to the one pictured in the photo for better performance.vintage AE wrote:SO STOKED, got this gem for a good fair of about $50 seconds ago from ebay![]()

Re: Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!
WOW, I should really read things more carefully. Dave has one in the BST? I thought you were referring to the one off ebay in the bigjeepzz thread, huh. Maybe Rod should go for the one Dave has for sale.Charlie don't surf wrote:Anthony, you know you just paid more for that one then the one I told you about in Daves BST thread
