I did some measuring on several of my cars. I don't have any JC Racing wide wheels, so take it for what it is. Both of my cars with JConcepts fronts have a wider track width than any of my cars with JC Racing or vintage wheels (as well as 1.9 JConcepts). My guess is that each company took a differen...

I'm glad RPM makes servo mount blocks. IMHO, these Traxxas mounts position the servo a little better. https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas-servo-mount-tra2715/p17467?gclid=Cj0KCQjwla-hBhD7ARIsAM9tQKsk4sgkvnoTORlgTKNe7C-ISXnb35iZVHcQNH1wqbETlDhTmPu2fGgaAjTqEALw_wcB While I have a few sets of RPM mou...

I once bought a set of beat up GT shocks, just to strip them for parts. The plastics were worth more than the shocks.

Nothing nice, just a spot filler. Tamiya Stadium Blitzer, mostly built from parts that were laying around. Even though it has some new parts on it, the only things specifically bought for it are the body, front posts, and servo saver. It has braced shock towers, AmPro upper and lower chassis braces,...

Got this cheap motor lot. Screenshot_20230406_132526_Gallery.jpg Three Yokomo outlaw stocks (32°, SP can). One is obviously a Bud's motor and another looks to have the green and chrome Associated/Reedy label. Kyosho 24° Roar stock. Two Trinity Speedworks budget mods. 24X1 Dirt Oval and 25X1 Super Sp...

Here you go.

I took these measurements a few years ago. But then I came across a stash of shock parts.

Hey, Hey. I don't want any hard feelings between you guys.

So in everyone's best interests, he should probably send it to me.

Obviously, a 480S would look awesome in there.

I'd assume that these places have storefronts as well.

Man looks like your place hasn’t changed much in 30 years

He probably drinks Bud Light now.

If anyone is close to him, kick him.

Not to be the bearer of bad news, but I believe that you'll find that you have an interference problem between these ball cups. Move the steering as you compress the suspension. Screenshot_20230409_155210_Samsung Internet.jpg You have RPM ball cups AND RCPS/Losi bellcranks. Either one is likely to c...

I've looked into them a little. They seem to have a decent reputation, compared to other mid level brands.

BFC4D74A-73C2-4FF3-A15E-68B9D9284B91.jpeg Probably related to this bunch. And yes, they used the floor jack in place of the tire to load the truck on the trailer.
