saw an ad for an Ultima RB and was wondering if you could tell me what it is. Plastic chassis, mechanical speed control, plastic links instead of turnbuckles. 2WD equivalent of the Lazer Alpha? What's a reasonable price for one in decent condition (with old transmitter and no visible upgrades, rear tyres seem pretty much worn out)?
I just picked up a Ultima Pro at the local junk store, in a box with a radio shack monster truck for $20.00. All the Pro is going to need is the upper fiberglass tray and a body. Dave (DW911) has this upper tray for sale and I was wondering if any...

the pro's flat brown anodised alu chassis has the same wheelbase as a stadard or turbo ultima. But apparently that chassis was not the noe included with the pro for thUS market? Still I think the wheelbase is only different for the kelron and...
When I restored my Turbo Ultima a billion years ago now, I remember remembering that I had to buy the motor guard separately AND I wore out the final pinion which was replaced with the hard version. So the list that radioactivity posted is correct....
Hey guys, I have an older Outlaw Ultima Truck and I need a few parts as I am trying to give it a bit of a fix up/resoration. I need the top radio plate , a body, the radio plate posts and the battery stopper kit. I understand that the Ultima 2 and...
So, I was getting a bit nostalgic and pulled out a couple of cars from 30 years ago. I cannot remember if this was an Ultima or a turbo Ultima. Can someone help?
The front shocks were from my RC 10

So I was searching ebay for a decent price on a transmission to get my Ultima back into running condition and I came across a buy it now auction for what was listed as a Turbo Ultima/Outlaw chassis for parts. What I think I actually ended up with is...

Hey, thanks for the props! :)
The steering setup I used should also work on the Ultima's ladder chassis. The Lazer steering I used can be configured like a stock Ultima or arranged like I did which is similar to most modern race buggies.
Time for a topic change: New project (as if I needed another one... :roll: ): Ultima ST on crack. See post five for what I'm starting with.
Does anyone know whether the Ultima RB or Ultima ST Type-R suspension arms fit older Ultimas?
Also, on the...

As evo mentioned higher up these are 4-5 mm shorter than the optima ones. You can tell cause the optima ones would never fit between the outdrives and those rear axle carriers.
(the optima rear carriers having lots more offset)
I'm just putting up a couple pics of the cars I ran during my radio-silence.
There were more, but these are the only ones which are still presentable.
This is another evolution of the latest ultima in my gallery:
The stealth was starting to give...

I've had this one almost ready for awhile, but only put the electronics in last saturday evening as the radical ultima was not doing well on the slippery hard clay track.
Turned out to be the right decission as the car felt sooo much better on this...
