This is my Gold pan runner, got in from fee-bay this spring along with another one a few weeks later. I took both of them apart and put the best parts into this one, now I'm looking for some info about the non stock parts on her? The rear shocks take Losi size springs, I've never seen them before and would like to know who made them? The rear rims are J Concepts and I used T3 outer hubs so I could mount them, the dog bones are a lil short and I had to use fuel line in both ends to keep them in. Can I run CVD's from another car/truck instead? I want to get it ready for the indoor dirt track someday, should be a blast to run!!

rear shocks look to still be threaded b4(?) shocks with bleeder cars from associated. Should still take associated springs.

Can you get better pic of the dogbone issues?

Here's a shot of the hub, I see where the prob is now, the carrier pivot point is diffrent on the modern hub it moved it to the outside almost 1/4". Will the bearings/ stub axle fit the older one?

there is a thread with all the info you'll need about running modern rubber on this buggy here:

a lot of good info in here also:

the second one is mostly for those builds allready set up but it has alot of links to their builds and alot of info of what they used to get it setup. Don't believe any had a t3 setup on theirs but would be a great place to find info on what you would need. Hope this helped.
