Totally agree the build threads and photography are always awesome

There ain't nothing new about it. Even different is still old. But whatever. I got the idea of using the RPM Bandit arms from one of Niki's builds but decided to approach the steering differently.

Hi guys, Happy to join this forum. I'm Mathieu, living in Cannes France, 43yrs old. I've been a RC fan when I was 12-15yrs. My first RC was a Grasshopper and then a Kyosho Raider Pro.

They may become more collectable one day but only time will tell.

It’s in pieces now but this was before that.

Probably easier to find tubing with the correct ID, then ream the parts to fit the tubing.

The easiest solution is probably to order the correct parts from Lunsford. They still make them.

I have a few various T4's, so I'm rooting for that they become immensely collectible and end up being worth a fortune in the future

You may want to look into the Lunsford black ends. The rpm ends are longer and thicker than stock and can cause some suspension binding on the front end. I worked around it because I wanted white ends. So you got white rpm and it binds ? Yeah on the front bulkhead there is only a little clearance b...
