I got myself a list for my old..new RC10, this is what I'm thinking of

Goldpan chassis

Front: RC10 nose
A&L graphite shock tower
RC10 arm mounts
Andy’s wide a-arms
RC10 castor blocks or B4 castor block
RC10 steering blocks (6220... for aluminum axles) or B4 steering blocks / B4 axles
Wide GT front axles
B4 jconcepts rulux rims

REAR: RC10t bulkhead
RC10t shock tower
RC10 arm mounts
Andy’s wide arms
B44 CVD kit
RPM 1.5deg RC10GT hubs
3/16” X 1/2" Avid bearings
B4 rear axle spacers
3/16” axle shims
JConcepts Rulux B4 rear wheels

I have more than half the stuff already. I have been ordering most of it off ebay while I have been away for work , so I cant wait to get home and play.

Let me know if anyone sees anything that wont work

andy's arms on the rear are not gonna work. you need rpm worlds arms or the dynotech arms.

ok, thanks, they are too short, eh?

[scr8p]

they're the same length as a standard rc10 arm. too short for what your trying to accomplish.

[vintage AE]

excellent, thank you very much, I haven't gotten the arms yet. Looks like i'm getting a set of 4 Dynotech Klein arms I knew there was a reason I didn't buy these yet.

[scr8p]

if you get a full set of dynotech arms, your gonna need a 10t noseplate, and front bulkhead, plus a shock tower to fit.

i haven't gotten the noseplate or bulkhead either. Looks like i haven't bought the things I was unsure of, that's always good. I'm not too familiar with the 10t bulkhead, can I still use the A&L front shock tower with it?

[Asso_man!]

can I still use the A&L front shock tower with it?

nope you either need a 10T or RPM one

[vintage AE]

ah, that sucks, I was looking forward to using it so I could use an old school body. I already ordered the Klein arms too. That's minor!

So what I have so far are
Goldpan chassis
Front:A&L tower (not using now)
Dynotech Klein arms
RC10 castor blocks
RC10 steering blocks (6220... for aluminium axles)
Wide GT front axles
Rear:stealth tranny
RC10 arm mounts
Dynotech Klein arms
1.5deg RC10GT hubs
3/16” X 1/2" Avid bearings

Is there anything on here that will have to sit out?

[scr8p]

you'll also need front inner hinge pins for the 10t/gt. nose brace tubes for the 10t/gt, also.

fibrelyte sells a carbon version of the rpm worlds front tower. or like david said, you could just use one from a 10t/t2/gt. i used an andy's pro graphite tower on mine. but, that was with a graphite chassis. i didn't have to worry about messing around with the nose brace tubes being in the way.

thanks, i'll surf ebay for a bit for a 10t front end, if I cant find any, I will go for the fibrelyte T2 tower. And, do you think there is any advantage in getting the 10t rear tower, or just us a rc10 tower?

[scr8p]

if your gonna get a fibrelyte tower anyway, just get the worlds tower. the truck towers are a bit taller, and it leans the tops of the shocks in a lot more.

as for the rear tower, it's really up to you. i'd just use a buggy tower, unless you want to slam the body. then get one for a 10t.

[vintage AE]

i looked for the worlds tower, but didn't see it. unless it's called something different at the fibrelyte site. That is why I mentioned the 10t towers
