Re: ID help battery connectors

Thank you. I appreciate that and I'd be happy to have them...I'd like to try a change from the tamiya style for a build and these are "half way there"...

I also have plenty of odds and ends if there is something I can help you with

ID help battery connectors

What exactly does 2.2" wheel mean? (Tires and wheels)

Sorry for what may be a question with an obvious answer. I'm just wading back in RC and determined to finish some restorations started years ago, and also to run some older cars I have. I'm trying to understand the measurement standards for wheels and tires. I'm not following the differences between...

Re: How to fit RC10 type front rims on Tamiya 5mm axles

its the hot trick metal "brace" that allows use of rc10 shocks, but when using as the fox kit the tamiya front arms bolt on to it, including hubs thru to axle.... isnt this a crp adapter part that works? I want to make sure this will do the trick... http://cgi.ebay.com/TEAM-CRP-1557-FRONT-...

Re: Reccos to finish this build, Progress and what body????

MikeDealer, I had a set of alloy cranks that I used which offset the trailing arm blocks nicely....I would be interested in the MIP set up if you have a spare to trade or sell--not sure of the difference between old version and new version though. For the shock tower, I used a Parma Graphite piece.....

Re: The Andy's Family................

Thanks for the link...I think the next logical step to really improve this site is to organize the reference material...There is so much great info and pics and advice but the chat room/threads structure isnt the easiest to use for that purpose.

Re: The Andy's Family................

you really should do the full "catalogue" of Andy's stuff.....a few pages of what was available, ads, build examples, rare parts....it is inspirational as well as helpful to guiding others with their own builds....

Great Collection!
