Mono front shock setup

I´ve been working on a mono shock for the TLR 22B, but I just can´t see my way through a clever solution.

It seems a bit too heavy

No doubt, Jeff

Those shocks are huge - I thought they were a LITTLE bit bigger than 1/8 size.
I think they´ll do well on the Toyota.

Get a second shock and do a Slam Dunkin cantilever setup. Wouldn't just transfer all the weight to the other wheel like a monoshock does

Or you could do a Hotshot style monoshock.

My first car was a 12e and one of the mods I had was this front end. I'd like to find another if it's out there. Don't have a part number or actual description, but it was an Associated upgrade. It came as a bag of parts and included. Don't know if...

The conversion should have been boxed

Well I had a chassis in great shape and lots of pieces so I threw this together. Luckily I had a jammin rear tower cause the stock one causes the shocks to rub the stock rims. Even with the shocks leaned in its still very very close. I am using the...

Not sure how practical that is, but it sure opens up the body choices. Reminded me of this thread until I looked at this thread... then I thought Why did that remind me of this thread?? :? :lol:

Hey folks,

Need some help. Working on the 2.2 wheel conversion and World's front end. I've gotten the extended aluminum GT axles but they are not fitting into my RC10 steering blocks at all. I tried jamming them in there but I can't get the pin...

Evening all. I have upgraded my 6-gear rc10 to the andys wide arm setup, still using the small shocks.

I am running 35wt oil and A silver short spring with the kit piston. I am running the standard shock tower (one position)

The problem is that...

Last post

I would use thicker oil and/or a heavier piston. RC10 pistons are 1-3, lightest to heaviest.

I have a car with 0.56 shocks and Andy's arms. It has silver springs, #2 pistons, and 30 weight oil. I wouldn't use it on big jumps but it seems fine for...

For the later cars that had the wide track arms, how can you mount a sway bar? What did AE do to mount the front sway? I can still mount a rear one with the stock rear arms but just wondering about the front.

Awesome, thank you sir!!!

Hi,

I'm new here but have four RC10's. My original RC10 I bought as a kid in '89, two B6's and a B64.

My question, with the B64 front shock tower being prone to blowing out, would it be better to replace with an aluminum one or would the B74 front...

Last post

Doubling up would be a good backup, thanks for the suggestion.

I've ordered the PSM shock tower. I'll let you know how it goes.
