So my latest deal lead me to two RC10T3 trucks, the better of the two I kept as a T3, the second one I took it apart to clean, rebuild, and sell, but since this website still exists, I decided to convert it into a buggy....
Here’s how far I’ve gotten, I need to order a bunch of stuff....

A bit of progress I guess, applied some vinyl to the chassis, cause I hate scrapping off double side tape from the chassis, and it looks nice
Cleaned and installed the gear cover.
Ordered some carbon fiber shock towers, and the arms are on their way....

I got em for a screaming deal
, might as well
The original shocks and rebuild kits are getting harder and more expensive to find, and I plan on running, maybe racing at some point....

Moving along....
Got my carbon B2 shock towers, these things are pretty sweet looking, can’t wait for the arms to come in.
Need to get some shock bushings for the big bores, amongst millions upon millions of other parts
....well, that’s how it seems like

And B6 wing mount for the carbon shock tower

I see you have mounted the shocks on the other side (front instead of rear) of the shocktower. Is that because of the big bores?
How will that affect handling?

Pints and electronics can be a bad mix
Looking good. I'm excited to see the finished product.

Pinted (painted) it
Had to massacre the body to fit and Velcro to hold it, the body was short for the chassis (T3), so I did the best I could, I’m tempted to buy the short chassis and a new body, but just tempted
