Found this in an old box of parts I had.
Any guess on this chassis?
Thanks!

I read Mardave on a front tire but have no idea what this is.

I bought a used RC10B4.1, it came with this strange spur gear.
Does anyone recognize this spur gear, what is it from or who makes it?

Maybe an ECX product?

ECX spurs and slipper plates are commonly swapped for higher quality and more readily available AE products.

I need a bit of help on this one. What exactly am I looking at if it is a Bolink?
This looks like the one that was in a lot with boats I had planned to bid on. I got distracted and never placed my bid and remembered about it just after bidding had ended. Nice score and it went for an unbelievable price.

I have an RC10 6-gear transmission with Phillips head diff shaft. Could it be a Trackmaster shaft or a different brand? It's in the smoothest 6-gear I've experienced.

Yes, Trackmaster.
If they were more common and reasonably priced, all of my six gears would have them.

Thanks for the confirmation, juicedcoupe. Any idea if these idler gears are aftermarket? They're whiter than the typical factory AE ones.

Not that it confirms they are original AE, but I see the four injection moulds inlets are in the same place. Four inlets centred between the screw on the outer tooth brim on the screw head side. Not that it means aftermarket ones can not have the exact same pattern, but I have seen idler gears with the injection moulds inlets further in towards the centre on the other side of the gear. I would say there is a very good chance they are oem AE old stock (the new ones from AE have again another pattern).

Great observation. The color, and exceptional smoothness, were the only reasons I thought they might be aftermarket.
