Help with Dogbone, please

Post by suby56 »

Hello,

My name is Clay, and I am trying to fix up my RC10. One of the dogbones is bent, so I ordered this from Tower to replace it, http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001571397&I=LX2558&P=K

SO, I got it in the mail today, it is the correct part number, 6370, but it also says "Dogbone b2/b3" underneath and it is about a 1/4 inch too long!!!

Oh, my.

Did I order the wrong one? Where can I get the correct one?

Thanks, guys.


More info:
Orginal dogbone is 2 1/4 " pin to pin
Replacement is 2 1/2 " pin to pin

I have a 6 gear transmission, A stamp chassis, and everything is orginal on car.
Thanks again.

If money isn't tight I would order a Mip CVD kit from Tower. No more lost dogbones.

I'd send it back. I bet it was packaged wrong.

Money Is no Object! At least until my wife finds out.

So, it sounds like I ordered the right thing, just an odd problem. I will send it back and try again.
