Any idea of what this bulkhead/diff. case goes to? Not the best pic but....

Probably something kyosho or yokomo?

The shape reminds me of a kyosho..but being in white would mean aftermarket and I have not seen one like it.

I believe you are correct! Now that I am putting two and two together, I noticed that there was another half of a diff. case in the box I have and it is for a lazer zx. They fit together perfectly. Not an exact copy of the original part but a lot beefier where the shock tower mounts. I wonder if this is homemade?

somewhere in the 100+ pages in the oople lazer thread I've read about these.
They were made to allow using a different shocktower

I guess I need to read up on s&k! Weird. So they made cars and electronics? Or just relabeled other stuff to sell as a rtr?
I might have to use universal posts for the body I have. If so, you're welcome to them.

I didnt even see the s&k esc. that battery brace will say S&K on it too, they were an upgrade for an rc10. They built those as a spec car that didn't seem to take off iirc. I was thinking they used associated front ends but that one looks familiar as well. I am having a hard time finding info on those S&K cars

pm me if those become available :mrgreen:

I'll have to look, but I remember S&K reselling built Schumacher cars back in the day..... from a certain period, at least.

Let me see what I can find.

What is it? I've never seen another one.

It's quite "cute" and the Bobweiser cracks me up.

April fools? :P

You have the box with the manufacturer, reseller, and model name on it. You even get a little sly alcohol & tobacco product placement to subliminally get kids drinking and smoking. What else are you looking for? ;)
