RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

After searching and waiting many years I finally found a nice enough and original enough T2 I wanted for my collection. Ok so do I keep the Reedy Firehawk in it or go with something else ?
Leave the Futaba esc or install a still new Novak Racer I’ve...

Was there an entire conversion kit by Andy's to turn RC10s into monster trucks? I just received a sealed bag of Andy's parts (arms, bumpers, body posts, wheel adapters etc) but has no tag or markings. Ill post a pic of it later when I have a chance....

G.O.A.T. - The 1998 Associated RC10GT Team Truck.
Fine Print: The date of the kit states 1993 from the label seal and instruction manuals. However, the kit contains catalogs and literature dated 1998. The title post has been corrected to reflect...

I might have a problem. I seen this scrap pile on the bay for $100 or best offer. I made an offer and they took it. The transmission and shocks are probably worth more than I paid for all of it.

What I got:

Most of it looks like typically late 10T...

Looking for any help sourcing factory team shocks for a T4 team truck build. Can be either the old 1.02 front and 1.39 rear shocks or the most recent 12x27.5mm and 12x36mm shocks. Is there anywhere FT shock kits can be bought? Or is the only way to...

Hi everyone.

First off thanks for having me.

Just recently picked up the hobby again and finding it hard to find the appropriate place for tips tricks builds and more.

Is RC10 dedicated to a specific group/brand/type?

I’ve just bought a Traxxas...

Anyone remember what wheel this is ? 77E4FFC2-C447-4DBD-A031-3184D3A8F761.jpeg

Hi everyone, does anyone have clear photos of the body ?

Does anyone know about the proline 2 stage inserts
Pro-Line® two-stage foam
I am gathering the last parts for my vanair build and the tire inserts have me vexed.
When I look at the inserts on the shelf they look HUGE. I mean big enough that I...

Hey all as part of my VanAir build I am working on getting things as correct as I can.

What MIP bones are the same length as the as what is needed for the 10T? Did the t2/t3/GT have MIP bones of the correct length?

The original car had a MIP®...

Hi all, I have a set of truck tyres that came in a bundle of stuff.

They are 2.2 rims with what looks like a stagger rib pattern tyre. The truck tyres are the same size as regular stadium truck tyres, just half the width. The wheels take a flanged...

Hi all,
I see the original rc10T tires listed as 2.2 will modern 2.2 truck tires fit the original rims ?
something like these?

JConcepts Ellipse 2.2 1/10 Stadium Truck Tires (2) (Silver)

Is there anyway that I can find a 10T manual? I have searched online for them and haven't found one. I am wanting to restore mine and before I take it apart I want to make sure I can find a manual so that I can put it back together. any help would...

Hi there, I have an original rc10t that I have been preparingfor vintage racing.

I noticed that it comes with 4.5 degrees of toe in on both sides.

This seems a lot to me, is there any reason why they decided to put so much toe in on it? What sort...

I have an original restored black arm RC10GT (black pan)....are those more generic than the white arm models?

I've been reading some of the forums they talk about updating to different pitch gears and a few trade offs, some seem to be geared towards speed.

I currently have an 16/87 on the car, I have an optional 64 but I noticed it's a slightly different...

With respect to Joey (jkracing) I'm going to start this thread so anyone could easily find the RC10T2 mod in it's own thread, and not go digging for it.

But first a little back history on the RC10T and its 1994 ROAR NATIONALS prototype shock...

Just picked up an RC10T that I’ll be rebuilding and hopefully documenting on this sight.
I’m looking for Lunsford Punisher Turnbuckles / tie rods. I wasn’t able to find a kit for the RC10T. Anyone know how to piece one togeather? I see T4 ones but...

General backstory of this T2: I got this truck brand new in 1996 when I was 10 years old, built it, ran it for a year or two at the local dirt track (RIP A-Main Raceway in Vancouver, WA) then got tired of being so much slower than the buggies that...

I just won an auction of what appears to be a rc10-team truck. However the parts appear to be black instead of white. I see that some truck parts were made in black.
Assuming they are original stock parts, are they made of nylon or some other...

so a couple of things i have a set of wheels for a truck and it seems know i have to get super long axles to be able to mount them on my truck could someone tell me what brand of wheel they are and do i need to get monster axles or are they not rc10...

Hi all, looking from part numbers, brands or suppliers/companies that have aftermarket shocks and tyres for my RC10T as I'd like to dust it off and start racing it again in my local track in short course truck event. Thanks for any advice.

I apologize for what seems like such a simple stupid question! :roll:

I picked up a T4FT earlier today and dug a bit into it. I found the front wheels were held on with plastic nuts. From my quick research, the front threads should have been 4-40...

I just finished buttoning up the chassis. Body will be coming soon.

I guess I could say I was inspired by scr8p/jconcepts EGT build. I was never a huge fan of colorful builds. But I thought the white parts against the blue chassis actually looked...

So I did a trade the other day for an Rc10t3 on Craigslist. I got the truck and it is in pretty good condition. I would like to build it to run on a track and would like to know how people have set it up. Right know its pretty stock. It has a...

I know I ask a lot of stupid question, so I won't stop now.

I purchased a CVD for the car and I was trying to install it tonight finding out that my RC10T does not have the correct pins for the RC10T3 that they came off of. So looking for the parts...

I have a few that are trashed so I wanted to replace several. I have found only a couple for sale on ebay. Is there a newer model that's close? I noticed that the 7230's are way too long.

I remember throwing out a white nylon shaft with a smaller point think on the end some years back no knowing what it went to. I'm trying to reassembly the shocks as part of the rebuild and I instantly remember what it was for :(

Next time put all...

I’m starting this build with a ton of misc parts I bought from DHood many years ago. Saw the Andy’s painted body on eBay and liked the scheme so I snatched it up. And also a big thanks to Todd at Vintage RC Parts for copying some damaged/extra hole...

Doing a complete refresh of my 10t runner/racer. New bearings, new turnbuckles and ballcups, new jconcepts shocks towers, new wheels and tires, rebuild of transmission and shocks plus fresh electronics on the way.

I have the original parts that are the slip ins. I was looking at upgrading to the CVA and many of the links I have researched are dead or OOS. I noticed that someone mentioned that I can use two different parts from two different cars.

I was...

Can anyone confirm if the MIP 10144 is the correct rebuild kit for 1/4 CVDs.

MIP's site lists them as being for 3/16, but it seems like someone said that the parts interchange.

If it makes a difference, they are the earlier ones, without the...

Does anyone know if one of the JConcepts Mesh Breathable Chassis Covers fit the RC10T?

Thanks.

Hey guys. Took apart the transmission of my 10t to clean it up, assess the condition, and throw in some new bearings... in the process, I noticed my diff thrust spring (that goes in the drive shaft) is missing. I have one on order, but I’m wondering...

This truck belonged to a friend of mine. He is a very OCD avid racer. He does every little thing to get that extra little edge down to wet sanding brand new diff rings to a mirror finish. Anyways he moved away from my area (pa) in 2014 to Florida....

Hello,

New to the forum, been around the past couple few weeks reading what others have done to their trucks.
I wanted to stop in and say Hello and share my project with you all.

I'm a life long RCer mainly trucks, I have a RC10T and RC10GT...

Based upon one of the last posts regarding CVD's, it made me thing, are there alternative parts for different models.

I know there are certain parts that I can swap to/from my RC10T to the RC10GT.

Has anyone made a comparability list of possible...

Hey everyone. Just another dug out my car for the first time since I was 15 guy here, getting back into things. It's an RC10T. First off, thanks for all the great info here. I've been digging for days getting myself back up to speed. I think I've...

So I bought this:

And this:

based upon a few suggestions, but I think the 3s battery might be overkill (from what I'm reading now).

Is there a way to limit it or should I look at returning the battery/charger and get something else? I was...

I have 2 T4 RTRs, and it seems that the inner ball stud on the rear camber link will loosen up over time and if I don't check them often enough snap off and send the dogbone flying somewhere. The last time it happned I could not find it, and it...

Here’s my third project:

I’m hoping to run this at the 2020 VONATS....

Well we have been on a full country wide lockdown here in NZ for a week and a half from the unprecedented global pandemic. Having done a lot of the home maintenance and DIY jobs I have been meaning to get around to I thought I’d scratch around and...

So, I’m looking at getting a slider, I will need nitro engine and pipe, along with electronics and radio. Been searching the bay for parts and it looks like stuff is sill available for the GT. Are nitro engines and pipes still readily available? If...

Ok guys it’s been a long time since I’ve done a start to finish build. And I’ve tried not buying anything recently. But I couldn’t pass this up.

I spotted this truck and from the limited pictures, spotted it was a legit Factory Team truck. No box,...

Hi everyone, this is my RC10T, I wanted to know what are the non original parts of this car, I see for example the black arms, maybe it was some update ... I don't know. Help me remember.
Thanks

Since going brushless on my RC10, I've had plenty of issues with keeping diffs together... I think I finally have it dialed, but my last teardown, I noticed the out drives are starting to wear. Are there any options to replace them? They are going...

I have an vintage RC10 T Gold pan that I'd like to put back on the road- but the arms are awfully crispy is there a source for new up graded(?) arms? or is it gonna remain a shelf queen?
