for those not on Facebook... FanRC injection molded parts rolling out

[RC10th]

Hopefully he didn't copy the worlds top shaft.

Hopefully he didn't copy the worlds top shaft.

I think that the case was the problem. And it looks like the re-re Worlds case

Now he has all sizes of shocks plus gold shocks and blue shock caps as well.

[GoMachV]

Yes! But don't overlook the part where the caps won't fit older shocks. Must have changed the threads

My guess is it's probably in metric now.

[GoMachV]

Agreed it's just weird cause CNC machines don't care what threads they are tapping and cutting.

[RogueIV]

probably just didn't want to figure out the measurement. I suppose it also ensures that you know it's a replica part.

My bottom load shock caps aren't the same as the classic rerelease ones that I have.
Associated did change the caps design at some point, correct?

[GoMachV]

I didn't think they changed the thread but I do recall that some caps don't cross generations well. I want to say it was the early bodies that use washers don't like the newer caps that used orings, like the first few threads are missing for the oring making for too little engagement. Memory is foggy on that though.

Not sure about those places but team KNK carries the FanRc molded parts and they are good people (and the prices are quite affordable!)

Not any more. I wonder what happened.

Who is carrying FanRC RC10 parts now?

EDIT: Okay, I found it. That link doesn't work.
I think this one will work.

ahh good catch, I updated my link as well

[isaidme]

So now that these have been ran how are all these parts holding up? I might find myself having to turn to some of them for my rebuild but don't want to waste time on something that's just going to snap with general use. they look great but I am interested in how they function.

[isaacn]

I’m also interested to hear from anyone running these parts. How durable are they vs OEM parts?

[romulus22]

I’m not on facebook so I’m unsure if it’s been mentioned or possible.

Has anyone talked about the possibility of injection molded suspension parts for the NIX 91 stealth cars? I’d guess doubtful as the need for them is really low. I was just rearranging some stuff and seeing my stealth car it’s the one thing I dislike about it.

What I've found, recently, is Asscociated threaded body shocks, whether top load or bottom, have more thread length cut out of the hex section and take bleeder shock caps. I think the older caps have the same thread, but they won't reach down to the o-ring to seal.
