Need some RC10GT CVD assistance.

Post by mAdMan » Fri Oct 30, 2015 9:09 pm

I have a GT setup with CVDs. I don't like them. One was clicking and its apparent they don't last like quality dogbones.

1. I popped out the CVDs and the RPM hubs have larger (frozen) bearings, I don't have new ones.
2. So I popped in the stock hub, bearings, stub axle, dog bone, axle pin, and pop on the turnbuckle.
...NOW THE DOG BONE IS TOO SHORT.

The rear arms are stock length.

What's going on here?

Usually cvd's wear due to lack of lube

With the dogbones did you use the spacer and spring? They are required

Hey guys,
I'm new to this forum and this seemed like the perfect place to get some answers. I picked up a 10GT roller a few months back, and a few weeks ago I upgraded to an OS 18CVRX. I love that engine, wheelies on command. The only catch is that...

Brilliant! Thanks for the tip. I'll try the shrink wrqp while the boots are in the mail. Thanks so much. This is just the thing I'm looking for. This forum kicks the proverbial butt.
Cheers,

The last time I ran my RC10gt, decades ago, a rock or something got in between the bone and the arm, and did this:

Stretched out the pin hole, and cracked the bell:

Can this be welded or repaired?

Turns out a user here on RC10Talk had the exact Shiny CVD bone I was looking for, I won't have to try and repair the cracked one now.

Thanks so much!

I'm sure these have been done before, but I would still like to share:

Tried a set of Thunder Tiger Phoenix CVD (Part Number: PD9000) and they could be used as replacement for the RC10B2 CVD.

Also the Robinson Hardened Steel RC10GT Idler Gear...

I recently did the B44 CVA change on my back up car, I hadnt noticed before, but there were 2 clear/opaque spacers in the outdrives. These appeared to be the same as the dogbone spacer/spring set up from a 6 gear car. Once I removed them, I had no...

Dear all, I have taken possesion of the remains of what I believe to be a Kyosho Assault. It came with some mounting plates which I don't recognise from pictures of complete Assaults. Any ideas welcome, cheers.

Those trailing arm pivots are original I believe

Hello All,

I was given this Nikko F10 Rhino in 1987, one outing a rear suspension was broken (I was a small child) and never repaired, put into storage only for me to dig it out a few days ago.

I have a 4 year old son now and I've love to see...

Nice job restoring that car. Man, that is some bumper. :shock: That bumper is so big, it looks like it almost protects the rear too! :lol:

Wondering about just the CVD bones, I'm guessing the B4's are longer but does anyone know what the actual lengths are? I *think* I used B2 CVD bones on the rear of my car with the MIP RC10 CVD kit so I could use the Klein arms or maybe I used B4,...

Last post

Ok, so then what I must have done (can't remember now, lol) is use the B4 CVD bones with the RC10 stock axles.

Thanks!
