Yet another nice part from Dwayne’s CNC machine:
It’s a wheel adapter to fit RC10 wheels on the Scorpion.

B4 wheels or B3/TT Phoenix wheels?

I’m no expert RC10 wheels, but I think the of-set isn’t god enough. So there will not be room for the shocks. The older 2.2” will give you that extra space, please correct me if I’m wrong.

The offset of the original RC10 wheels is the same as the B3 or the modern clone, the Thunder Tiger Phoenix BX wheels.

RadePrep was a hobby shop that also made aftermarket parts. That is where i bought my Scorpion. I used to have dampers from them for my scorpion, they were red and big bore. I don't remember what else they had, I was not aware of many hop ups back then. I used to break broken parts with the oem parts

There were lots of hop-ups for the Scorpion, I know about approxemently 100 non Kyosho hop-up’s especially made for Scorpion. Then you have all universal hop-ups that fit several of cars from that era.

Your red “big bore” shocks might be Kyosho #1886. They were used as replacement at the rear. Or used at the front with CRP’s front tower adapters #1542 and at the rear Kyosho CB-88 shocks together with CRP’s rear shock tower #1536
Kyosho “big bore” shocks #1886
