-Bolink Digger

That's not a Digger chassis. Although I don't know offhand which model(s) it was used for.

[GoMachV]

There were a few using that type chassis but I think the digger and lil red wagon used the rollers for wheelies

BOLINK DRAG BERRETTA TOO.I think thats what i used to have,its been years.Built it new.don

[highwayracer]

Is this a Andys JRX2 front arm, if not can anyone identify it?

That arm was used on the Ultima and Jrx2. The difference is the diameter of the hinge pin hole (Losi is larger). The one pictured is the standard Losi length...so it could also be marketed as a wide arm for an Ultima.

In addition, the short version for the Ultima is also marketed as the Oval Arm for the jrx2.

Ok. These parts came off a Bolink Renegade I am trying to restore. I was told The rear blocks were Associated. But; I've seen different versions of the Associated for this era, and they don't match. Front arms are definately Associated after further review. But; here's the question. What did these pieces even look like for the Renegade. That's what I need to know before continuing my search. Also; does anyone know where I can look to find the pieces I need. Or; does anyone have a donor Renegade sticking back they are willing to trade or sell? The first pic is the complete Renegade.

bolink probably used associated parts to build that car. it wouldn't be the first time a manufacturer repackage someone else's product.

i would just buy a nice rc12i (i think) and use the parts you need from it on your bolink, then sell of the leftovers.

[Bandit13]

Yeah, that's an idea. But; I want the correct parts, and I know they were not Associated to start with.

[GoMachV]

Bolink would have bought them from associated and bagged them under their name. Same as custom works and many others have done

I managed to pick up Big Jim's RC motor black book a while ago, I asked the seller to include a motor if he had a spare. This is what he sent, and I am not sure what it might be. (I was looking for a freebie )

Epic 19 Japan on the shaft side, endbell has Epic and Japan on the pcb. I assume it is a printed circuit board.

Anyway, 19 turn probably? What about the colour of the can? It looks like it is a anodized greenish tinge. A half metallic washed lime green? I dunno...

I think Epic19 refers to the can version not the wind. The can usually is used for several motor versions as making a different can for each one would be too expensive in the end. The timing is locked at this can so I think it´s a Spec motor. The overall view of the motor looks like a design Trinity introduced with the P2K but it is a newer version for sure.
As there is no sticker, I think it´s an OEM version sold to motor builders who could do their own wind or just relabel.
