Well, I guess my first build restore thread will be this 7011 series sport truck to replace the void filled by my original Team truck I stupidly sold in the late '90's. TTRU (Team Truck Replacement Unit) came from fleabay and I may have paid a...

I just picked up an early 10T on Ebay (impulse buy) that has no transmission. A quick look around seems to indicate that a stealth transmission sells for approximately 2x what I paid for the truck, so in the name of cheapness, I want to explore...

Perhaps. I did see the other day that there's somebody retrofitting a B5M trans into a flat pan chassis. I'd hoped to be the first to retro a B5M trans into something, but I'm way too busy with...

Hey everybody! Wanted to show off my rebuild. I ended up taking this whole thing apart. I bought this car in a lot of multiple others. It has the stealth transmission on it. I was able to get most of the white acrylic paint off the body and pan. I...
I've been looking for the shock rebuild kit #6440 and it appears to be quite rare.
Are there substitute shocks that can fit the RC10T?
I saw a set of V2 rear shocks. It says they're 1.39 but I think I have 1.32 currently. I'm guessing it won't fit.

I was thinking about directly replacing my Rc10T shocks out right with something modern and readily available to preserve my original T shocks. I tried the links for this build
But certain parts aren't available. I see proline has sets for short...
I am going though a semi-buggy conversion of a RC10T I found locally.. I just picked up a set of aluminum bellcranks from an RC10 and noticed my steering was all messed up - (see pic below)... I had to lengthen the linkage between the crank arms to...

FactoryWorks has been my go-to for carbon fiber for a while now.
A very knowledgeable business member and moderator here on RC10 talk.
PM GoMachV for available parts and cost, that's what I do.
Or check out his Ebay listings.
Hi all! I caught the r/c bug again and plan on working on an RC10T with my son. I only had Tamiyas growing up but I always wanted an RC10. Now I can actually afford it. Anyways I found a deal locally, and it came with a lot of spares. The truck...

Glad you're up and running. I haven't messed with brushless motors, but I do believe they want more gear than a typical brushed setup.
As for the shock towers, J Concepts makes some nice carbon pieces. RC Carbon Works also, but their site has been...

yeah, you won't find the aluminum ones very easily. I cut my own from 1/4 standoffs tapped for 8-32. the steel small pattern ones as Jeff indicated will work perfectly however.
I couldn't pass up one of these new Factory Works chassis kits. It is very similar to the ultra rare vintage Composite Craft Worlds RC10T chassis, however it uses the stock aluminum front end. The material finish is very similar to the original, and...
I'm new to forums and RC cars but I recently found in my attic my rc10 world's car in near perfect condition the other day. I never ran it myself beofre then but the guy who gave it to me ran it maybe once. I took it up to a hobby shop and they got...

Sweet, thanks again and the photos are a big help.
I will head to my local hobby shop and see if they have the body/wing you mentioned or something similar enough.
I recently acquired a RPM 10T ultra molded chassis kit and need to get a rear motor guard for it. Will the Worlds RC10 rear motor guard work? They look identical in the images I researched. These things are like hens teeth to find.

You can email RPM and get one direct from them for like $10.
They're the same as the ones for the RC10 graphites, just ano'd black.

Wow, I'm new. I didnt realize you could update so many parts, those shocks and axles, hexes, slipper. I got some reading to do.
Picked this up on ebay after no one bid on it. Total one off custom. Bought it because it's pretty unique. Pretty sure is an old 6 gear tranny on there. Front end might be Associated too. I'll know for sure when it gets here...Should be here next...

No real damage just some paint on the outside. Tip of the day don't use fans of paint as filler when you are moving your one of a kind rc10 semi!
I picked up a T3 recently and it has a blue anodized motor plate, front plate and rear plate. Was this a FT version? Can’t remember. It also has blues turnbuckles, full bearings, graphite arms and CVDs.

Awesome, thanks. Shouldn’t be an issue with that portion sticking out further. Thanks again.
I don't get to mess around with trucks all that often. But awhile back I was asked if I'd be interested in restoring 3-4 GT's. So the stuff was sent my way and we were off.

Nice build. Obviously, a labor of love. Just picked a T3 roller off Ebay myself for use on my backyard grass track oval. This is a good reference thread. Cheers. AC

That's a clean looking runner. :shock: Nice use of parts you already had on hand. I noticed that it has an RPM 2.65 gearbox, which is a nice touch as well.
There's a seller on Ebay that has a lot of RC10GT parts, all of which appear to be new aftermarket parts. One of them is a nose plate. With RC10T/2T/GT nose plates getting harder to find in nice shape, I started wondering if this would make a good...

Yeah those kingpins are unique at associated. The t3 and b3 we're the only cars to use them so who know where they had them manufactured. Tolerances are probably on the high side.
