I looked up the instructions and the top deck is 2 piece not single like my FRP top deck. Chassis is alloy not Grp or Carbon. The rear arms are one piece not with pillow balls that attach the hub carriers.
Mine is a Pro with ball diff, fine pitch gears, gold shocks, sway bars, and etc.
I also noticed some box art are black while others are white.
I just picked up a Ultima Pro at the local junk store, in a box with a radio shack monster truck for $20.00. All the Pro is going to need is the upper fiberglass tray and a body. Dave (DW911) has this upper tray for sale and I was wondering if any...

the pro's flat brown anodised alu chassis has the same wheelbase as a stadard or turbo ultima. But apparently that chassis was not the noe included with the pro for thUS market? Still I think the wheelbase is only different for the kelron and...
I hate when I do that. :oops: I was putting my Turbo Ultima tranny back together after doing some work on it. When I went to reassemble the diff, the tray I had all of the small stuff in tipped and sent everything flying. I ended up losing all but...

I thought of another question. My internal gears are in great shape but the external gears are a little chewed up. What are my options for these? I've attempted to clean them up slightly with my dremel but haven't gone too far because i'm not sure...
Hello RC10talk forums! i've been lurking on here for the last few days reading everything i can about the first gen Kyosho Ultima that i picked up at a garagesale recently for the tidy sum of $15. here is a picture of it next to a rather rough...

Here are some Kyosho Gold shock specs so you can compare with your shock sizes.
Front expanded hole-to-hole length: ~73 mm
Rear expanded hole-to-hole length: ~97 mm
Using spacers and different ball ends, you could probably figure on a workable...
I was helping my parents clean out the basement and came across my sisters Ultima. I originally just thought it needed wheels/tires, but it looks like it was used as somebody's parts car while I was off in college. During the last few weeks of...

Right you are, my bad. I must've been confusing Optima Mid with Ultima. :oops:
I had a bunch old lost parts laying around for a Junior 2, Jrx Pro and Jrx T, so I decided to build a buggy out of it. I'm only missing a few parts that I'll need to track down. One is the shockmounts. Will these fit Jrx-T shocks?
Also, does anyone...

The one day that I havent been able to comb through ebay like I usually do, and they pop up! Thanks for the heads up. Those are exactly what I need.
This is my first post on this forum, and I apologize if my english is not 100%
I recently had a look around my old RC cars and found some parts from my first real race car.
This got me the idea to try to build a replica.
Prior to the...

There are some Ultima PRO XL for sale but they are either very expensive or in bad shape.
Found a old Ultima 2 on Ebay that I am going to use as a donor car for the parts that is missing.
I do not know in which direction this build will take, but I...
This was bought off ebay last year as birthday present to myself to give me a large dose of nostalgia. I raced one as a kid back in 91-94 when everybody else had Schumacher cougars and rc10s.
I had to...

Hey mate
What bits did you use to do the shorty conversion mate? It looks great. I just picked up a pro with the same alloy chassis but was puzzled as to what holder I could mount but it looked difficult with all those slots for the saddle pack...
Well it's going to be an Ultima anyway. I picked up an outrage for CHEAP the other day. I also have gotten a hold of a Ultima Pro chassis. (I know that the XL chassis is generally more desirable, but I like a twitchy car!!) Got a few Questions...

I'd love to see a pic of the bottom of that motor guard, and how it mounts to the chassis there. I wonder if it would work for an Optima?
Erik - I still don't have a gear cover. :( ...I think the stock one will still fit. I'll be sure to let you...
