I need some help from you guys.
Is there a Yokomo wheel that has a offset that is between ZC-827C and ZC-835?
I have a pair of ZC-827C and they rub the steering knuckles and at full steer the shocks.
and I tested a pair of ZC-835 and then the car...

This is really good info sandkil. This is a tough subject to gather the facts on, but you did a great job! Sorry I can't be of more help. I can tell you the offset difference between 870c and later yz10, when the arms changed shape. The rear wheels...
I’m currently in the process of cleaning up a ‘94 (that seems the have a fair bit of pavidis spec parts on it) and I’m not sure where to look for parts. Even eBay seems slim and searching google for stores I am coming up blank.
I've recently become interested in early Yokomo products and was lucky enough to score an RPS Yokomo YZ-834B off eBay. It is a bit of a rough example, but a survivor nonetheless.
Almost as important as the car itself is the documentation that came...
So I’ve been on the fence ready to pull the trigger on a rere XLS or Optima but for some reason I just could not bring myself to fire. As the last few years have passed I’ve kind of fallen out of love with the entire rere thing. It kind of happened...

Just an ESC and motor to fit now and this one is done 👍
Hi all, found this tidy car but confused about its origins.
I didnt think the YZ-10 had an upper deck, but this one does also it has gold anodised shocks which i thought was team associated? If i remember right yokomo has a purply blue anodising on...

Its a JC products YZ-10 shell, they also sell wheels in 2.2
Ah fair play, it looks very similar to the Fastrax shell 😎
I'm not as familiar with the early Yokomo off-road cars and have started reading up on it (and checking the forum). Regarding the 1987 YZ870C Super Dog Fighter and YZ10, I understand that some parts are interchangeable. How far does it go where...

Thanks, jwscab! That's really helpful. At least that now expands the parts pool I can look into and I just have to be cautious depending on what part to mix.
I just just completed this one yesterday evening, this will be the last of my covid-projects as the track has reopened and the racing season has resumed.
I was gifted this car (and a few others!) about two decades ago by my racing...

I have given up trying to find 834b wing buttons and am now going to have a set made. Could anybody who owns a Yokomo 834B be kind enough to provide me with the measurements in mm and some close up pics so I can have them machined? I know...
Last post
Yup I'd say its just that the conical tip of the drill bit went fully through but probably unintended .
So there’s plenty of information on converting to hex drives which I don’t want to do.
I’m looking for a driveshaft solution for my 870C where I can retain the existing square drive, are there any readily available options that don’t mess with...

I’m running A&L steering, it’s all pretty hooked up, it tracks straight as a die low speed but pulls hard on half to full power .
Here is a photo of my 92 works build. I need to modify the topdeck slightly to fit the 870c body correctly. I also have a new wing, wing wire and wing buttons. I just installed the used wing to see what it looked like.

Awesome! Have you finished this project/painted it?
Hi all,
Picked up a nice stock 870C and it had RPM Bulkheads along with stock magnesium ones, does anyone know where I could source some NOS RPM Yokomo associated parts?
Thank you in advance

Most stuff comes from eBay or begging furiously on various Facebook vintage r/c groups ;)
Hi,
I just found these parts and I would like to know if these parts from Andy's only fits the Yokomo YZ10 or another car too?
Also how do you distinguish if they are the long or the short version?
Thanks to all from Canada.

OK Thanks for the info.
I got all that with the YZ10 I bought
Thanks again,

I am trying to find out the difference in length between the MX-4 and MR-4BC. Specifically from the lower gearbox/bulkhead mounting holes. I dont have a MX-4 chassis on hand.
I am going to have a longer MR-4TC Special chassis cut to...
Hi all, I want to lock the one way centre puller on my yz10 94. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can do this without ruining the one way. I wondered if any of the touring car parts would fit, but allow me to run the slipper still.
Any help is...
So I have a couple sets of tires that look the same but one set is labeled at Hot Laps and the other has Associated logo on it. I'm assuming they're all Hot Laps tires....just Associated wanted their name on some? What kit did the Assoc. tires come...
New member here and thought I’d join as I’m getting back into the RC hobby after a 15 year break and catching up on what I’ve missed and finding out that all the models I used to race are now classed as vintage has certainly opened my eyes...

This gives me some hope $720 + $60 shipping, maybe time to unload my hord.
I have posted this in my Works '92 thread as it will be going on to that build, but I just thought i would start a new item-specific thread in case anybody is researching these rare (and very beautiful) items and wants to search for info.
Hi guys, I have a runner 870c and I've broke a couple of rear hubs, I'm now down to my last few, I already have Andys front hubs but I'm after any rear hubs, plastic or nylon if anyone has any great ideas?
Searched the usual suspects but none...
Last post
If you're having trouble finding the original magnesium hubs, you can use Kyosho Lazer ZX rear hubs as a substitute. The hub offset is very similar to the 870 magnesium hubs, plus they have more holes for adjustability. Might not be a perfect fit,...
hi all, i have another yz10 question! i want to upgrade the turnbuckles on my 94 yz10 to works titanium. struggling to find the genuine ones, does anyone know if anyone make a reproduction set that look similar?
Last post
Lunsford ones look similar, and retain the period appearance.
Got this guy in a large lot of cars and I'm quite the Yokomo noob. Been getting a crash course on vintage Yokomo lately.
I think it may be a YZ-870C? But there appears to be multiple models of the 870C?
Any Identification help would be appreciated.
Last post
Great, thanks for the help. I thought they looked like Associated shocks, but didn't know what came with the kit.
The steering kit on this thing is quite nice. Silky smooth.
Hey all, I'm new to this site. Came across these forums from a google search. Really enjoying reading about the old vintage RC cars.....

Survivor!
My view would be to restore and run it.
It could potentially be a lengthy and costly job but given you've a history to go with it, I'd think it would bring back good memories running it again!
As per the title I’m looking for a new bumper for my yz10 94, as the original zr-111 are very hard to find, I just wondered if reproduction ones are available from anywhere??

Bumper ordered!
Another question, would anyone know where I can get a set of turnbuckles similar to the ones fitted to the works cars?
hi all,

There are no plans so far to cancel Revival this year.
I think the organisers are playing it by ear. Lets hope it still goes ahead
Just got an email from John at JC racing products and he said he is almost done with the mold for the deeper offset 870c wheels. He said he hopes to have them for sale by first or second week of January.

Has anyone received a white pair? Are they shiny glossy white, or dull molded white?
Has anyone dyed a pair of whites with black dye? Do they take dye well?
Looking for the YS-2R and YS-2F spring sets. Really just need the copper springs. For a Works 91 and Works 93.
I do have several sets of the springs in other finishes. Might try to get them copper plated.

So that bag of springs went for $170 and that was just for the rears. Crazy.
I decided to make my own copper springs. I electro plated some Yokomo silver springs. Took about $25 worth of stuff (muriatic acid, copper wire and a power supply at 5...

I still run mine from time to time but then I have three (how did that happen?), one very stock , one retro moded and a third that i cloned with CAD and 3d printed so I could have one I could drive without regret .
Since I had a lot of parts laying around, i figured to try and built an shaft driven mx-4. The MX-4 has always been my favourite looking car. The used parts are either from different brands or self designed and built. Chassis is laser cut from...
Last post
The main purpose of this car was to make something that could compete with modern cars, whilst still looking vintage. There was minimum extra cutting of the body needed.
It also resolved the problem of a lot of useless spare parts....
I have what I believe to be a Team Associated graphite chassis for the 1988 YZ10, are these chassis made to be used with the middle chassis spine and tensioner ?
Thanks
Last post
If it helps in any way, I have that same optional chassis on one of my 870c's from bitd, and that ran with a centre spine as per the original format.
Finally got around to cleaning up this beat up old yok. Looking a little better now- fresh pulleys, rear and center caps, tough belts, rebuilt diffs, Robinson spur, and some Hot Trick red g10. Still need to cut the custom upper brace, make a bumper,...

Ah that sucks. I got some 834b/ dominator wheels and tires that were haphazardly painted blue red silver and...maybe yellow? I mean wheels AND tires in one shot. Ugh. Thankfully everything survived the old acetone bath and came up ok.

For me this front-end will be going on to a Works '91 chassis, hopefully with an MMS ribbed heatsink motormount :wink:
Does anyone know of a alternative to the stock part or have done a modification. I have not been able to source the OEM part anywhere, but there are similar parts on Ebay for other cars. Thanks.

Custom Works 2106 for the dominator should be the same part, but they don’t always pop up either.
You could use one of the printed ones that Dadio offers, but you would want to reach out to him
