Hoping for a little part ID help again. These are all from a recent lot I picked up with tons of misc items in it. Just a few things I need help with...

What car are these from? Sorry for the less than stellar pics...I didn't want to break the seal on the bags.

These look like wing mounts...super robust and large. One has 5043 and "V" on it, the other has 5044 and "H"

This thing I have no idea if it's even RC related...

This bag with a bunch of screws, a clip, and an aluminum thingy...

And last, do you know what vehicle this is from?

HI!... This comes up as Tamiya Super Blackfoot Gearbox shaft for me.

This looks like the Tamiya BlackFoot front grille mount.

Thank you sir, That's what they appear to be. (Man I love the knowledge here!) Looks like on mine the previous owner must have stripped most of the red on the bodies. And as far as lengths go I haven't a clue either. I guess if I sell them I will just post them as Kyosho CB shocks?

I have a set that are very similar, except desperately needing cleaned - the previous owner GLUED the spring spacer to the bodies. I figured they came that way, with the shaft uncolored (heh heh - he said shaft)...I don't know why someone would stop part way...but what do I know? I ain't no expert. :)

Bolink in the bags.

R Cane, the second set of your shocks are also Kyosho but have a thinner bore than dave00beer's.

Nope. They came in either all silver or all red bodies. Then there were also gold in that size for the Gallop but those had a bleed screw at the top.

That's odd. If I was going to the trouble, I would do the whole body...I guess that's just me.

I'd guess that the previous owner didn't know about EZ-Off and used sand paper to remove the ano. Sanding the beveled end and mounting eyes takes more work than the bodies so they were left red.

The "V" stands for left and the "H" for right.
Left and right = vänster och höger.

And yes, this is going to be in the test later, it will influence your grades. :D
