You-G for clodbuster? It looks like a Clod that is in the instructions.

Hey guys, bought a car and parts off ebay and it also came with a box of mystery parts not associated with the car I got, Anyhow came across these hub/carrier looking things?

Anyone know what they are, or hell maybe their not even RC related







Thanks, Dave

Those look like they belonged to an old Radio Shack RC. They are very close to the ones that are on my Dash 4x4 truck...

Thanks in advance for helping me ID these aluminum shocks...

(note, I have one pair, one more of the same size, and 1 unpaired..I provided the "instructions" in case that's a clue

Looks like I have a pair of those coming as well....

You-G seems right but I want to say Parma too. Could be both.

[toybaron]

well, it seems I have a mismatched set in size and of hardware...so off to the B/S/T long for short or short for long

[Mr. ED]

I have a set of those shocks i believe. Not you-g but japanese indeed... Need to look it up.

Mine were a set for the Thundershot

Some wheel hubs still trying to ID. These fit hotshot wheels. There are long and short. Axle diameter is 5.0mm and also 5.0 to 6.0mm step in the ID. Were sold to me as yokomo hubs, but they dont fit any yok axles Ive got. They dont match mx4 wheels either. Wondering if these are actual hotshot parts??




Next set here do fit Yokomo wheels. I just found them so havent messed with them at all. Very thin and light.

Ahhh Thanks! Yes I can see the similarity....OK those will go to the trash...LOL.

Anyone with info on the Buds motors?

Thx

It almost tells it on the wing - PB APLHA

The second set of yokomo hubs are very likely hot trick, and probably for kyosho taper fit axles.

[rccars4sal]

Oh very cool. I never figured hot trick because they arent red. Tried and they do fit old Kyosho taper axles.

This looks different than your usual vanning.

Yeah, I fell a little bit in love with the red uprights and c-hubs - Was going to put a reasonable bid on it, but the shocks threw me of.
Any ideas on the heritage of the red plastic parts?
