I'm just gonna leave this right here...

This is SO great!! Hope they are dyeable as it doesn't sound like they will be offering them in orange...

OMG is that a nice build! I would be proud to show up to the track even today with that car. Just looks like it will handle great!! Your pictures are fantastic as well! Great build and write-up. Bummer about the brand new bulkhead stress cracking- even with 4-40's. I would washer/nut the front side ...

Thanks Todd, for the top quality option parts that help us restore and now even renew our favorite vintage Losi rigs!

WELL DONE!!!!

The new towers look great! Can't wait to see them installed! I did notice that on my Jrx2 tower set, the holes have been drilled a bit oversize- this would make it easier to go 3mm hardware if you ever wanted to...

Well done!

Nice clean weapon you have there! I have always had a soft spot for the SW. It was a very good handling TC. Back in it's prime I was fortunate to race & hang with Josh Cyrul and he helped me dial the car in perfectly! I am actually, currently working on recreating 2 copies of Josh's car from tha...

Thanks for the help guys! Will post pics of my build soon!

Those are them!!!!

Thanks for the advice! I am seeing that Kyosho OT-55 hubs look like they have the same hinge point. That should do until I can find some actual Yokomo hubs.

So I am trying to restore my first 870c. I found a super clean car that just has a broken front C hub. Looks like I need ZC-413. All other 413 variants look to be incorrect as the lower hinge pin goes through the outer end of the "c" hub instead of the inner. So, Are these SUPER rare? I've...
