Same geometry but with way more flair in design would boost sales tremendously ! And it would give the cars a way newer modernised look.DON

I sent my bulkheads to Chad back in October to use for measurements. After getting my originals back, I haven't heard a peep about the repros.

Damn, thanks for posting. I was on the fence for buying a few things, but now I put my order in. Trying to resist the urge to hoard more dynotech arms for the old is new rc10 build, but I have enough. Others contemplating the same build might want to get their orders in!

Looks like you opened up a can or two full of worms

Prob better honestly, they were heat treated differently and less prone to the chipping and shattering-

Thanks,

I think this would be a great seller, as it offers a more modern suspension solution, as well as providing the maximum le agal width to the rear end. Current solutions offer either a narrow rear width, or a older suspension geometry. -Jeff

So was reading this thread again this morning, and thinking about the two comments quoted above got me wondering if someone here couldn't come up with a brand new front arm design (instead of just a repro of stock wide or RPM worlds) that produces the correct track width with B4 front wheels and perhaps even bring some aspects of modern suspension geometry to the RC10?
