hi all,

going to order a pair of nose brace for a RC10 tub chassis from towerhobbies and while I was there I thought to get some other spares as well to make the shipping cost worthwhile (non-US resident).
Here's the list...

LX2774 Associated Team Nose Brace Tubes Black (2)
LX2557 Associated Rear Hub Carrier 1.5 Degree (2)
L5251303 Associated Front Block Carrier 30 Degree (2) NOTE: Each "Quantity" of one reflects shipment quantity of 3 units. Also, "Price Each" reflects price for each quantity of 3 .
LX2512 Associated Front Suspension Mount (2)
LX2554 Associated Rear A-Arm (2)
LXGAF4 RPM Front A-Arms RC10 (2)

are there anything I should add or take away from this list? I couldn't find a converter for 2.2" wheels rear and front though. Which reminds me, stub axle, do I need extra or should I be looking at the inline ones for 2.2" wheels? TIA for suggestions.

for a rc10 converted to 2.2, the axle type doesn't matter for the front, but it will in the rear--you will need a 3/16" rear CVD set (b2/b3) AND look for some 2.2 B3 wheels--the B4 has a different offset front and rear

that was quick! Will I need either new bearings and/or new b2/b3 rear hub carriers to go with the CVDs as well? Thanks.

Bearings will be 3/16" X 5/8" (x 4) non flanged, and yes you will need the 10t/b2/b3 style rear hub carriers--they should also be avail

what are you building? or are you just stocking up on parts?

thanks, don't need this (LX2557 Associated Rear Hub Carrier 1.5 Degree (2)) anymore

just converting to more a available platform for tyres and stocking some bits that will inevitably be broken thanks to my clumsy driving.

(and gosh, I have somehow reached the magic 25 post. Maybe I can qualify for the buy/sell forums to search for bits too...quickly sending his application off)

Should be 3/16" x 3/8". B3 rear carriers are not suitable...

C'mon Reg!

I feel toopid shoulda went to bed--is the b3 carrier like the t3 then?

Yeah B3 and T3 are the same, the pin hole is offset more to the outside than the 10T/GT/T2/B2 one.
