I'm still working on some electro fixing .

My memory is failing but aren't the inner holes for screwing the gear to a slipper clutch?
I think if you've fully populated the outer set of holes, you should be good. For reference, an early AE spur only holds 8 balls so installing more is just a bonus.

Built the 6-gear for TDP car, and the 40th. https://i.imgur.com/PUPkn6V.jpg Using the asc6693 spur, I have two leftover diff balls from the inner ring. The outer ring I wouldn't have enough of these. https://i.imgur.com/4vx8c3C.jpg Was I supposed to buy more diff balls to use this 48p? what do you ...

The diff balls on the outside are much better, thanks @XLR8! https://i.imgur.com/RYNiTMe.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2AtT80u.jpg https://i.imgur.com/p9oBXur.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VOSrppV.jpg Should be easier to complete this from here on out. Those two look great - like Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker...

Those parts look fantastic!
The slight shading from the sun just gives it character and let's everyone know this one's a legit, OG, Made in America RC10.

The Kimbrough was made to bolt to different hubs I don't think the holes were originally meant for balls. Knowledgeable folks told me those inner holes would line up perfectly with early Schumacher slipper clutch housings (Cougar 2, Bosscat, CAT 2000, etc). I was able to find Schumacher spurs, so I...

The chassis is finished so thought I'd post an update. P1010001.JPG P1010005.JPG The tub has spent some time as a buggy so a quick coat of matte black hides the scratches. P1010010.JPG I've had a couple new sets of these threaded shock bodies for a while and this seems like a good project to use a s...

In case anyone missed it, Amain has the JRX2 Mini for $99.

Installing: Start one side in the groove. Use a small flat blade screwdriver to push / squeeze down the ring until the rest of it is in the groove.

Here are some progress pics of Grendel's resurrection. She's been in body & paint since just after Christmas 2023. I never liked the original EF8 olive green color, but I wanted to remain true to her green roots--while doing something nobody has done before. Spent hours googling green-painted ca...

Now that it is apart it's a great time to get those nasty burrs off the gears

Found a couple photos of 2 of my 8 fox body mustangs. My 91 GT prepped for emerald green metalic paint and my 89 notchback state patrol car.
