New to the forum and trying to get my old rc10 in good shape. I have read alot of stuff on here and love the builds. I think it's a 1992 rc10ce. Gold tub white plastics. I'll get pics up.

Any one have a list of the sizes ? Tranny is a white stealth.

2) 3/8 x 5/8 plain bearings
4) 3/16 x 3/8 plain bearing
2) 5/32 x 5/16 plain bearings

i don't remember the size of the bearing for the slipper, but i think it was 3/16 x 5/16 plain.

2 - 3/8 x 5/8 plain / outdrives
4 - 3/16 x 3/8 plain / topshaft and idler
2 - 5/32 x 5/16 plain / diff
1 - 3/16 x 5/16 plain / outer slipper hub (2.25 stealth)

the thrust bearing (6586) is nothing more than a bronze bushing sandwiched between two washers.

Resurrecting a dead thread here, but I had a question.

I just tore my Stealth down last night and only identified 6 bearings (for the topshaft, idler, and diff/output assembly), all of which seat into the two halves of the case. Are 2 of the bearings inside the diff/output assembly itself? If so, is it worthwhile to disassemble and rebuild it? I had to tear it all down to re-dye the case.

Yes, they are inside the diff. If it is apart might as well rebuild it.

I would rebuild it also I had a t3 that I took apart to replace the bearings I put it all back together and then 10 min after running it was just slipping like crazy because the screw and t-nut kept coming loose so I took it apart again rebuilt the diff and it was fine.
