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.

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.....

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 8)

Apparently you can use the updated stealth trust bearing (solid brass) as opposed to the one pictured in the photo for better performance.
:shock:

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.
