Fan RC is reproducing them but they appear to be out of stock everywhere.
I know Avid makes a version but it's aluminum and I'd prefer a steel shaft and gear.
Anyone else making these?

Re: Are we ready to add an RC10T ReRe section?
Oh darn, a thought just occurred to me. :( In addition to the wrong shocks, the kit will likely include bushings not bearings, the nylon could be very white and it probably won't come with a printed manual. But you know what? I DON'T FREAKING CARE! :lol: If the quality is like the 40th (and why woul...

Re: Are we ready to add an RC10T ReRe section?
Is it real? Why would AE take it down - a misprint correction perhaps? Someone did a Thumbs, and went early...... :lol: :lol: I've said time and again that the 40th would be the last "classic" re-released this year - or maybe forever. I've never in my life been so happy to be wrong. :lol:

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear
Actually it is recommended you boil the parts after they completed a peroxide bath. With no support I have always done this before. My thoughts were that if the nylon is dehydrated it would absorb water/fluid. So I wanted to hydrate the nylon with plain water first so the peroxide would only be on ...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear
After soaking in the water, the nylon seems to have become more supple, and the fade isn't as crispy or dry looking. https://i.imgur.com/3GWm6ZZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZOyMLKm.jpg Wondering if I even need to do the peroxide now. I'll wait to see what the water did for these tomorrow, and then deci...

Re: My first RC10T. But, what is it?
So the replacement arms have arrived from Factory Works. Thanks again Jeff. Notice the difference (original arm is on the right). The new arm lacks a stringer at the wheel end. I'm guessing the replacement arm is a later design? P1010014.JPG With this design, perhaps some torsional rigidity is sacri...

A nice little 10T care package from Factory Works.

Re: RC10 Classic 40th anniversary
FWIW, I like my 40th just as it is. The nylon is nice and white, the anno is brilliant gold/orange and the zinc and black oxide plated parts look good as well. The rest of my RC10 collection is old, the anno is faded and the nylon looks dingy by comparison and some of them have been peroxide treate...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear
Actually it is recommended you boil the parts after they completed a peroxide bath. I've heard that as well. Look, I think we would agree that subjecting vintage RC10 parts to boiling water and harsh chemicals isn't good for the nylon. I've done the peroxide treatment in the past but these days I'm...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear
This is great! I really appreciate all of your input, thanks guys! I can't afford to do this wrong and ruin the original parts, and hearing all of your success stories, and best practices, makes me feel more comfortable about doing this. First, I soaked all of the white plastics in water, it has be...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear
The peroxide method is tried and true. If it hasn't been mentioned, just make sure to rinse/soak the parts after really well. Might want to pay particular attention to blind holes, etc. When going into the peroxide bath, you can drive the air bubbles out with a toothpick or similar. Same with the r...

Re: My first RC10T. But, what is it?
Well, best I can do is 25 degree castor blocks with some shims under the ball stud to bring the links parallel - or closer to it. This setup will be placeholders until I can source the proper ones. I want to keep the project moving forward. Built the shocks today so the chassis is nearly finished. T...
