Holy Moly!!! :shock:


I about shed a tear when I saw that. Gotta put the $$$ aside for a MrLexan body for my SE. What wheels are those white ones? Those are 870 hubs correct?

these front wheels are from '94 YZ-10, and the rear ones were made for RC10 by yokomo. works 91/93's front wheels have right offset for this setup. but I din't have it anymore. and, the front wheel hubs are original.
and the rear's are 870c's front ones. it makes 3~4mm bigger offset on each side

Thanks for the info. Now I know what to search for. :mrgreen:

Are those wheels 2.0 or 2.2"? Can't tell from the pic (sorry). :?

Great resto! If you're gonna run it, you've got to run it with a bug body or an old school hard body Toyota or Nissan. 8)

almost done
got new gearbox, topdeck, delta front axles, new rear axles, re-anodized rear shocks with molded shock pistons, 870C front shock, thrust bearing on steering, and new battery. this newer battery is too long for the body. don't have any idea on it at this moment
I'll replace the motor, rear shocks, and wheels with checkpoint money 19T, hard anodized shocks, and 2.2" wheels
new chassis most of all
