Vintage RC10 Shock help

Post by nitro4blood »

Hello,
Im new to the Forum but been around RC cars all my life. I recently picked up a RC10 sprint conversion done in the late 80's I believe. So my question is what size shock bladders do I need for the front, and where do I get them? Thanks advance, I look forward to being a member on this fine forum.

Hi Chad,

Pics please!

If it has RC10 shocks with shock bladders, the originals were made by Team CRP,

Custom Racing Products, inc, part # 9113.

They do come up on E-bay, I haven't seen any for a while.

If the shocks are original RC10 you can build them without the bladders.

Cheers, Dave. :)

Hi Hugger,

That's interesting when I do a search by the part number, nothing comes up.

Is this because it says (seller does not ship to Australia) so Evil-bay won't show me the listing?

Cheers, Dave. :)

Yep, ebay filters out stuff you can't buy.

Not answering the question that was asked, but...

... bladders in AE shocks? :shock: :shock: :shock:
