Let's say hypothetically(spelling please) i was able to land an RC10 Graphite, and wanted to convert it into a Truck, what kind of CVDs can I use when I install rear RC10t arms??
Is it at all possible to do this conversion??
Has anyone on here done it??
THank you?? I guess??
Am I still asking questions??
Dough i am, aren't I?? oh geeshh.

a set of RC10T CVD's should work. the rear chassis drillings on the RC10T is the same as the RC10 and it uses the same arm mounts. The chassis will be shorter so you might have a tough time making a body fit.

Oh brother, so the rc10 graphite has a shorter wheel base than the rc10t? so any suggestions as to what body might work??
I might just keep my eyes peeled on ebay, and try and get me an RC10T.

How's about a beetle bodied RC10 Graphite Truck, with RC10T blue RPM arms, blue tierods, RPM ball cups, Maybe use one of them Kamtec bodies
, oh geez I'm getting ahead of myself.
That'll stick out in the Nationals 2wd truck class, won't it??

you'll also have to modify the front kickup on the graphite chassis to except the 10t front bulkhead.

you sure can. if you want your front track width an inch wider than the rear.

No no I mean, I would be using Rear RC10T arms as well, would it still be 1" wider in the front if I had rear Truck arms??

Ok so I'm scrapping this Idea, cause there's no way I'm gonna cut off a graphite chassis, for one, and I'm not going to be running a retarted looking truck with way too wide front suspension
I guess is back to the drawing boards. If I do get the graphite, I'm restoring it and selling it
