I am building a driver to run on pavement and I'm wanting to do some aesthetic upgrades so it looks cooler
To that end, I'm looking at taking some of the parts to get hydrodipped, like the chassis and motor plate, the tubes, maybe the stealth case and bulkheads. The front tower is carbon fiber with the weave showing and I'd like the rear tower to have that look too so the towers and trans plate will all match. I've seen builds here with a rear cf tower by JConcepts, but did AE or any other aftermarket outfit besides JConcepts make a cf rear tower? It seems that the options are limited...
Big pile of RC10s and Ts from OG to 5s and an 18 or 3
FactoryWorks has been my go-to for carbon fiber for a while now.

PM GoMachV for available parts and cost, that's what I do.
Or check out his Ebay listings.
Today was exciting. The first batch of iridium carbon fiber parts got cut. This includes BK rear towers for the 93 worlds car (mounting holes still need to be countersunk) as well as a batch of towers for the Losi mini JRX2. I’m sure many of you...

CustomCarbon, check your pm for a request on cuts.
Looks like the message was deleted. Let me know if need to follow up.
Just came back from the LHS and they had a bunch of vintage rc10gt & rc10t carbon fiber and graphite front and rear shock towers. I asked the owner what the difference was and he couldn't give me a solid answer. Anyone know? Are they better than the...
Can someone please suggest or point me in the right direction for a wing mount to use for this tower? F-L told me the Kyosho mount referenced on their site is a Lazer ZX-R. Is the ZX-5 mount the same?

There are others that are similar to those like KSG for example. The old school mounts are tough to find these days, but they pop up from time to time. I snagged a bud's racing set a few weeks ago :mrgreen:...
Mid motor has been the thing here in the PNW racing scene for the last few months. While it's awesome to see some innovation in the R/C industry, I still am not sold on most of the current kits. Having owned almost every major brand...

From a serious carpet racer who made most carpet A finals in the Uk including British championships feel the same way, lost the passion since the B2/3 got replaced. It really was and still is a fun drive so am going to have these bits from you when...
I recently broke my last spare rear shock tower for my 10T and am looking for a replacement. Problem is I can't find any. None of the rear shock towers for the newer trucks seem like they'd fit. Anyone have a source of replacement towers?...
Do any of you happen to have a Carbon Works RC10 rear shock tower on any of your RC10s? I need to find out how far apart the 2 rows of wing mount holes are from each other and also how far apart the holes in each row are from each other....

The main purpose is to get the body lower. The shock mounting positions aren't really ideal for a buggy, but seem to work ok.
I have been working on another project in my spare time, but have a question. I am building up a buggy with Klein rear arms to get some more extension. In my research, I was told to use some B44 rear CVD's. I think that i am using a RC10T...

What size bearings on the custom wotks hub? I have a few sets coming to use with the b44 cvd.
Just to confirm its 3/16 x 3/8 × 4 bearing size
thanks
Yes, this is the correct size of bearings for CVDs with 3/16 axles.
