Re: Left overs from my original Optima and Turbo restos

Since these pics I’ve shortened the travel on the front shocks a bit (but springs are way too hard), and lengthened the bottom links on the rear. The towers I used I got years ago from I don’t even know where, the rear is way longer than standard, Happy to now have a Javelin sitting amongst my other...

Thought about anno or powder, but these parts are not in great shape, so decided to try something else

Re: RC10T6.2-GT

Love this truck, excellent job. I've been eyeing these conversions off for a while, I'd love a gas truck one day, but think I'd prefer an earlier GT, but 1 of these to be able to have a run with would definitely be cool

Re: Gifted Fox

What pistons are in the shocks? The original kit came with about 3 options, 1 with 4 big holes that would barely do any dampening, if they’re in there, that could be the issue

Re: Tamiya Fox Lost Drive

The plastic wheel hubs on the rear of the Fox are prone to cracking, so take off the wheels and check those for starters, but I would suggest the drive shaft hexes are shot, not really a serviceable item though, would have to replace the entire things with Nova Out drives and dog bones

Re: which color primer for box art mud blaster

I’d use white, should have no impact on the final colour. There are 3 TS choices you could use, normal clear TS13, pearl clear TS65 or flat clear TS80, so if you want a standard glossy finish use the TS13
