Gold/Platinum Shock Collar Screws

Post by rangerg »

Is there a modern replacement for the small black screw that goes in the collar of Kyosho gold and Kyosho platinum shocks? Actually, my collars seem to have two types of screws (one wider than than the other). I always try to match sets of 4 shocks with the same screw (skinny or thicker). I can clean up both golds and platinums to my liking for runners and shelfers, but I dislike when those screws chip the black off, and I have many in that condition. Any source for new ones? I have some of the RC screwz allen/hex ones and they good, but I prefer black standard like the originals.

I ended up getting the Kyosho Car Aids pack. It has them.

you can always touch up with a black sharpie marker too. put it on in coats, first coat, let it dry, and reapply. It works well to 'look' like a black oxide or similar, and for small touchups.
