What was old is… still old, but a lot newer (Update 2/20/11)

I'm using the stock / OEM rear hubs.

Solved the problem by moving the upper rear turnbuckle higher on the rear bulkhead. Then my CVD broke after driving it for a few mins

i finally took the time to try out the CW hubs i picked up before the nats. they work fine, too.

Sorry to revive this topic, but what aluminum spacers are those? I'm looking for something exactly like that, with notches on the inner surfaces for cross-pins. It's not for an RC10 ironically, but to mod some Sees Losi JRX-2 wheels to be mounted on Kyosho Lazer CVDs. I went through all the pages of this thread following this post but could not find any part numbers for these spacers. Thanks!

Is the rc10 team car black rear bulkhead the same as a 10t rear bulkhead?

i am trying to do a Seidenelch car and not sure if the 10t carbon fiber shock tower will be a direct fit. thanks

Where's your CV pin retainer ?

When you've never lost one in all your years of racing, you don't think about "needing" any.

yes, rear bulkheads are the same, RC10, 10T & DS

So i see the original ball studs are smaller than modern ones. What are these translucent white ball cups in photo and do they fit the old or modern ball studs.

also, i have not figured out how to install an original ball stud into the front arms for sway bar (as pictured) because the ball has a socket hex and cant be countersunk. Was going to try new lunsford ball studs but the flange is huge and the ball is too big for the sway bar cups.

[scr8p]

they're stock ae ball cups.

as for the sway bar, just use a ball stud with the hex in the end that is long enough to put a nut on the back side once through the arm.

Thanks scr8p
i bought some old swaybar sets from associated and used the hardware. i had to unbend and then put new bends in the wires. thats not ideal but it will get me started.

are original ball cups available? i have the black ones from the team kit but would like the white.

i never have luck searching for the proper wire. what everyone calls piano wire. google sends me to all the wrong places...
