Re: Poll Bolink vs. Associated

You'd need an extra plate to mount the AE front end. The ART chassis isn't wide enough.

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Trackmaster chassis from FTW. TM OVAL CAR 2.jpg Got so excited, I threw the bling trans in there within five minutes, just to find out it doesn't fit. :( The PO had widened the holes in the chassis by 1mm out and I had not noticed. Just need to come up with a plan now. TM OVAL CAR 1.jpg Is it possi...

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread

I missed out on a badger several years ago and I'm still bummed about it. All I managed to get were a bunch of diff parts. :(

It was a DD version that used front RPM RC10 truck conversion arms for the rear suspension.

Re: Sand Rover, Tamiya's unlovable child

Happened across this article just the other day, and thought maybe it'd offer you some ideas. Seems like it might have been a popular mod, as it isn't the first time I saw/heard of people mating Mardave Apache front ends to Holiday Buggies/Sand Rovers.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread

Wasn’t that what the mag ad was selling -(couldn’t see a brand name), Subaru brat, frog, Blackfoot, monster bettle etc all had the same gear boxes after all , nodis may have had a dog bone out drive option as well as the standard hex bones. Thorp did both the standard and dog bone options as well a...

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread

Thanks for the clues on the boat parts. :) Here's another part I haven't been able to ID....ball diff for something using dogboes/drive shafts with ~8mm hexes on the ends. It's metric, 12mm at the widest bit, then 8mm on the shaft, and 6mm for the ID of the diff rings. #$%^ing finally! For 4 years ...

Re: Reedy Modifieds - which one would be your favorite?

I do like the original green label Ultra Reedy motors ... Just an FYI, OG green label motors...the one's without the gold fins on the endbell, were not part of the Ultra series. Ultra series came out when Yokomo upgraded their motors c.1987/88. https://www.rc10talk.com/download/file.php?id=105857 M...

Re: Reedy Modifieds - which one would be your favorite?

It's frustrating trying to ID a mod motor that's not NIP. Six years ago I picked up a yellow label Ultra, and an Edinger era green label (+ silver dot) together in a lot and I still don't know if the arms in them are correct. I'm almost convinced they were swapped by the previous owner. The yellow i...
