If you are using the truck bulkhead I gave you the wrong center link or you need to put the ball studs on the inner holes and it would be better if you cut off the outside holes and areas they are in. For no bump steer the ball studs need to be the same distance apart as the front arms inner hinge pins. Sorry

It was great to meet you and thanks for letting me go on and on and on....

Hey Daryl, thanks for chiming in! It's not your fault bro, I should have mentioned what bulkhead I was using Ok sounds good, I will use the inner holes and nip off the excess and see how it lines up, if its still a bit off should I pop new holes in the center link? And in no way were you going on, it was nice to reminisce with somebody who still remembers the old track at Break away! Thanks again for the help!

The inside holes were for the first RC10 T's so you should be good, after a while we made RC10 T center links and never removed the inner holes from the RC10 center links - do not know why??? I have RC10 T center links if you want to trade out. Daryl

Thanks for the info, the inner holes are working perfect, I love this steering setup!

I have been using the outside holes with my 10T nose , I will move them in during the current rebuild. Although it worked great before(very very little bump steer).

Time for an update;
The runner is actually running! I basically followed the same recipe that Scr8p and many others have posted here, thanks for all the help everyone!

-RC10T nose plate (cut, filed and tapped), bumper, front tower, shocks, front bulkhead, re drilled nose brace tubes
-Dynotech arms front and rear
-A&L steering kit
-B4 front hubs, spindles, axles, battery strap, top shaft and V2 slipper
-B44 rear CVA kit
-Custom Works rear hubs w/ .125 spacers & associated spacers
-Stock arm mounts and rear tower
-Rulux wheels w/low profile wheel nuts, Tires = codes in the front, subs in the rear
-carbonworks tranny brace
-RPM gear cover
-Tekin RS 17.5 combo
-Savox 1257

Things that will be addressed very soon;

I was very bummed on the quality of the carbonworks towers, so I will be running the worlds front (thanks jkracing!) and a fibrelyte worlds rear.
I will also be getting a new turnbuckle/ball cup set, rpm mini bumper and a new body of course

Jared, I built another car to come play @ WC with, setting it up for stock class:





Hoping I can make it out tomorrow, still need to finish up electronics.

Sounds good JK, I will be there all day testing some things out before race time. Thanks again for all the help with everything I really appreciate it! And BTW Ol blue looks awesome!

Very nice work. I wish I had a vintage scene at my local track. I am the only one.

Jared and I are working to get one set up, right now, we are the only 2.

yeah, hopefully we can get an all vintage race every month or so at wcrc, that would be sweet

Jared, car looks great, pics were blocked at work

Were you running that spring set up last week? I may have just built blue backwards , I have silver front/green rear.

Yeah JK, basically using the softest truck spring I have up front and one stage stiffer in the rear.
I will be back out at WCRC on Sunday, hope to see you there!

Well after a very frustrating day at the track last week, I'm rebuilt and ready to roll. I had a guy think it would be a good idea to ram me from behind full speed and literally push me over the quad. Broken hub and cracked wheel, didnt even make one lap! So I ordered extra CP hubs this time Ive added a rpm mini bumper, worlds front tower (thanks jk!) carbon strap and new shorty lipo. Please forgive the crappy paint job!
