Thanks. Yeah I did that per the instructions...trust me they were smooth! No dice but I will try again...

Recently dug out my collection...intro thread here if you haven't seen (also have some Kyosho stuff) http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=36684 (RC10 Pan car refurb thread in sig) So back in the day I used to have an RC10 that had all the Hot Trick Stuff parts...the car was so awesome - ...

Pics as promised...back on track. Just waiting on female deans to get here so I can finalize wiring. LOVE the old race prep connectors but I'm finding some are not reliable so have to make the switch! http://www.mikemartinelli.com/albums/My-Car-Pics/RcCars/2014/RC10-Pan-Car-Refurbish/IMG_3792.jpg ht...

Did some research and decided I need a deeper dish wheel. 6mm offset will work just fine. Ordered new HPI vintage wheels advertised as having 6mm and of course the...

Been out of the game for a LOOONG time - just got everything back out and did a hex conversion to my RC10 pan car and I'm having trouble finding wheels and tires. Converted to hex because everything seems to be hex no-a-days, but I guess the problem is I've searched a ton and most of the places that...

I was thinking more for gears guys compared to bearings. When I was refurbishing my RC10T I saw it on the spur gear which brought back memories and forced me to dig around to find the old bottle...lol.

Nice the wax stuff...I bought a wax lube for a bicycle chain but never used it. Will have to check it out. Thanks.
