b4 vs b5 steering bellcranks

Post by JosephS » Fri Feb 04, 2022 2:44 pm

I'm looking to understand if the aluminum b5 bell-cranks are similar enough to the b4 to be used on a b4. I don;t have any in real life to compare.

It looks like the a M3 vs 4-40 screw for the mounting so that looks close enough, but I noticed that the cross member looks a bit different and I suspect that the b5 bell cranks 'arms' are longer then the b4 ones.

Howdy yall

I've had this one on top of my head a few times but never got to ask... but as I'm working on getting the LXT ready for action in May, it comes back to the surface again:

why the steering bellcrank asymetry on the first-gen losi...

From the man himself.

The JRX2 originally only had a flexible steering arm as a servo saver (not such a great idea). I wanted it to be as long as possible to reduce the strain (more travel) when hit. Since the arms were offset only one could be...

Hey all, I just received my B chassis RC10 last night, and one of the first things I noticed was the steering was binding. After undoing the nylon lock nuts I looked inside and sure enough the inside of the bellcrank tubes that fit over the 8/32...

no, they just replace the #8 hardware with #4 hardware and those posts. I suppose a steel #4 is stronger than an aluminum #8.

is there any out there for the 10t that use the long 8-32 screws like the buggy? i know the rpm bellcranks would work for what i'd need, but lotsa luck trying to find those. mip's would probably work, but they suck. how about the composite craft...

I couldn't help but show this abomination I just picked up in a collection. The pink panther driver was just too cool. Once You overlook the nightmare of a suspension geometry, there are some cool parts here. Novak servo, chassis that looks like the...

Definitely an interesting time capsule. I'm coveting those rear tires (Proline Flat Stubbies I think). I have a set and they hook-up great on my track.

In those days, running brushless and pneumatic motor bearings were a speed secret. :wink:

What are you guys using? I see Jconcepts made a set here but appears to never have produced.

I don't see the usual Ebay suspects either? Am I missing the obvious?

I got a lot of parts today, and these were included. I do not recall ever seeing bellcranks with metal inserts, anyone know anything about these? were they standard on the jrx-T like this or was this an upgrade part?
Thanks!

Last post

wow iv'e never seen thoes either. but im guessing the bronze or brass inserts are to act like a bushing to keep thoes massive truck tires and the additional leverage they created from chewing up stock ones. look to be a rare item indeed.

I’ve never seen these before, went back through the 25 year thread. Don’t see them there. This is a very late all black parts, “worlds” if you will team graphite. A11149E5-7C67-4248-B22D-E69ABA4DE20F.jpeg

Thankfully I’ve got the complete set because it looks like someone removed and reinstalled one of the mounting screws with a hammer and a chisel :lol: B4D20811-B054-4DFE-A9B4-0C8287A00AD1.jpeg
