This is a tribute to the great line of RC10 buggies produced since 1984-2009 (RC10 - RC10B4). This is a work in progress. It will take some time and help from fellow members, as we all learn new things about the different versions. So please be...
So I picked up a buggy about a month ago and then got slammed with work. Last week I finally had some time to start tinkering with it. It had a spur gear with a million teath on it and I wanted something a little better for all around use. So, I...

Hi all :)
Today I finally got my first set of T-crafts all the way from Sweden. Have been wanting a set of these beauties for a while and I have given up hope 1000 times when a friend in snowy Sweden told me that he had a set for sale - I don´t...

Still assembling parts for my team car, and really like the looks of the graphite with the blue anodized parts, I found some blue anodized shock bodies for the GT I think but I don't know if these are the same size as the hard anodized that came on...

I have a couple of blue shocks if ya need 2 more 3.25 eye to eye. JohnnySr.
okay, I'm hoping I get lucky with this one. I've been wavering the last couple days looking at this one. Not sure if it's a real deal '93 worlds or not, seems to have the right bits. I'm really hoping that the tub is as clean as it looks in the...
after seeing some pretty cool beatle on this and TC i have been bitten by the bug (lame i know but the crime would be not to use the pun) so i polished up a hole ridden pan with a hot trick wide front end grafted in a kyosho lazer trans half a...

good idea to put a mid-motor transmission on the short wheelbase: should help to keep the front tires in touch with the ground.
If you can : flip the servo over and mount the ESC across from it. That's a heavy piece you'd rather keep low in the...
I am starting my second project this one is a graphite team car I got off ebay. My first was my old gold tube that I rebuilt for my sons birthday. My questions are back in the day I replaced my stock RC10 shocks with kyosho gold shocks because of...

Some progress.....body painted and mounted, still need a wing.
Swapped out the motorplate for a black LiteSink, hope to locate a blue one one of these days.

That's right, this is the only project that I've been working on. I've been hoarding stuff for a couple years and decided it would be cool (and just might work) so I started opening bags (yes I said opening packages of parts, sorry guys it took me...

Good to see you building again. I bet it's fun to open up those new bags of parts and finally see that beast come together.
Just some quick pics of my RC10 street stock conversion that I just finished. This will be strictly a parking lot basher. I got the chassis off ebay and bought new RPM suspension parts and a bomber conversion kit from Speedy’s Racing Parts. The...

I dig it, I would do the custom works wheels personally. Here's the details on how to make the CW wheels fit properly.
Owned since new, going to be restored..... someday. :)

Yeah, one was anodized in a separate batch than the other. The same question has been raised on the anodize tint grade to associated, and as far as I can recall, there was no intention on the shade of gold. The color simply just differed depending...
I just got the time this Week End, to build a new project, a Gold tub including Jammin towers and battery strap, MIP transmission, Losi Dog Bones and Steering bellcrank, Lunsford titanium turnbuckles, Yokomo front and rear wheel adapters and AE 1.02...
Just picked this up yesterday for a pretty good price i think. Cant wait to get it. I will need some worlds front and rear wheels and tires if anyone has any they want to get rid of.

Lots more done today and i must say this has been great to build. I installed new RPM ball cups today only to find that the ball cup on the shock tower and the inner ball cup mounted on the steering rack hit so i need to order some stock associated...
Picked up these goodies today....an older RC10 with Mag Jr. and an RC10GT with Mag Jr. Both are complete, plus I got a bunch of parts, some misc. Tamiya/Kyosho hardware, some oddball tires/wheels and a few plane parts...haha. :lol:

Picked this up a couple weeks ago, it's in really nice shape. Hard to tell in some of the pics but the a-arms are a little diss-colored but not too bad. The gold pan is in nice shape, has a few scratches on the front plate but it's really nice from...

I have a RC10 with a 6 gear tranny that needs new idler gears. Is there a source for these? They were part #6613. If I cannot fix this tranny then is a stealth tranny a bolt in replacement? Are all stealth trannys the same? What about the newer ones...
Last post
if you do that, make sure you use some kind of light grease on the gears, since the trans will be all metal.
I have a black ball bearing steering kitt that came with my team car and the bearings are rusted fom sitting so long. what size are they? anyone have an idea??

thanks im gonna add them to my Avid order tomorrow.
I brought them to my local track with my boys a couple of weeks ago. my young boys run these runners. and came back alive. only the damage were gold pan's rear shock tower and FL tub's twisted nose plate. right side wheel is 3mm highter than left...

looks like a team car with worlds pieces, explains the u joints, 2.0 rear wheels and non machined chassis tub.
thought the worlds car came with u joint driveshafts?
Bought a box lot of rc10 junk, one has a truck conversion kit. I'm pretty sure the kit would have originally had wheels that slid right on the stock rc10 axle stub. There is a whole set of matching chrome wheels and rc10 to tamiya blackfoot style...

junkman,
PM me, I was just cleaning out and sorting my junk fastener bin and found a pair of them.
I have never seen sandblasted parts called this before :roll: .

Yeah i saw that that about two weeks ago and said the same thing.I can do the same thing at work for free.I have purchased a couple of items from them and they did arrive as advertised.
I started building this thing about a year ago and it was going to be my ’09 VONATs car. I’d stopped working on it when I realized I wasn’t going to make it, but I thought I’d go ahead and finish it before moving on to another project. I suppose...

Just an FYI - I ordered a pack of those stand-offs from Sheldon's and they are the same 1 ones used on the RC10 chassis. All 6 are tapped for 4-40 screws.
Is the B4 still in production? Or has associated moved on to the next model?B44? I have been on the associated website and can't find any production dates. Well the reason I am asking this question is I came across a B4 stealth nib with the...

i dont see any time soon the b4 being phased out till the b5 is due even then you will beable to find parts and kits for a while longer. just like u can find a far amount of b3 parts still.
Ok, this is my first RC10 runner in 12 years, I use to race RC10s in the 90’s and the last runner after my Team car was a B2 and the last truck was a RC10T, like 3 years ago (it’s getting retuned at the moment).
I am currently working on the paint...

Thanks ace028, I am looking forward to seen you Ultima. The last thing on this Buggy is I adapter a modern RC10B4 dust cover. I am running a B4 slipper clutch so I adapted the dust cover.
Okay, here's one of the cars I just got in tow with my worlds, pretty clean six gear chassis with some cool items on it. the chassis has a little bow, but is pretty sound, I could clamp it down and straighten in a little, other than that, it has...
Just found these forums and thought I'd join in. I've been into RCing for over 20yrs. Did some racing but prefer to just play around. Have had all sorts of buggies/ cars/ trucks etc... I still have my original RC10 gold tub (circa 1988) in almost...

This thing is a FRANKENSTEIN. It started out simply as a clean RC10CE Graphite (with Bushing, couldn't afford bearings at that time).
I was in the 4th grade at that time, so I really couldn't afford too many things. I would scour the track for worn...

Tom, great to see you made it over here. I was digging through my boxes the other day and found a white battery cup (and other assorted AE related parts). Its yours if you want it, shoot me a PM and we can figure out how to get it to you.
