So I posted a pile of parts the other day after digging a bunch of stuff out of my closet. I found some pretty cool stuff in there so I decided I'd like to build a nice truck out of everything I have. Hopefully end up with a nice era correct,...

The Runner is a roller now. I really like the B6 ball studs and ball cups. I had to purchase some shorter turnbuckles to make it all work tho. The World's steering is nice too. I am using T4 CVD's on this as well. No binding and they will definitely...
well since my black and gold buggy project is winding down , and I just finished sorting my latest haul
think its time to tackle the rc10 t form this lot
I already have a nice all white part 10t shelf queen with a rpm trans so this guy is...

Nice color on the tub!
yea I was pretty happy when I saw that they had the spray on bed liner in colors
ive used the black before and its great
and this blue is pretty close to the old blue chassis associated used to sell
Was there ever a graphite chassis offered for the rc10gt ? I've done a few searches and found nothing. Its a full chassis , not a flat piece with the screw on nose plate . just wondering what brand it'd be if it was an after market option . someone...

It may end up being for sale once I find a decent replacement tub .building a sprint or dirt oval car on it is honestly something Id rather not do .
Sounds good. I have a decent blue pan (the later, thicker, flatter GT chassis) on the car that...
Haven't been around here in a long time. I was thinking about RC's lately so I started scrolling thru the forum again. It gave me the motivation to pull my RC stuff out of the closet to see what I had. Been in there a while and I really couldn't...
What happened to online rc10gt forum?
I remember an old forum that was specifically for the gt's . I remember the background had a blue pan gt and gt2 , top views with no shells .
I did a quick search on Google , only found the RCU official...

The GT2 was a good attempt to get gas truck racing going again but was too short lived and to me lacked the appeal of the previous GT's. I didn't get one but nothing can compare to gas truck racing from the mid 90's to early 00's.
Looks like a cool build. I have started and disassembled/abandoned 2 of these truck conversions in the last year. I'm currently on my 3rd one and we'll see how it goes. I really like your choice of tires. The big knobbies look very correct on these...
I started building this out of my pile of 10T parts with the intention of selling it, but now that it's nearing completion, I don't think I can part with it. I have other 10T's. Mostly modified with era correct upgrades and custom painted bodies. I...

Since the decals more reflect a team truck I changed the trans brace to the carbon fiber one and went with the MIP cvd's. I just can't help myself---I always prefer the era correct upgrade parts. :mrgreen:
So I have this t3? truck I recently got in a package deal with no body. I have a body laying around that id like to use.
What do I use to mount this?
Thanks!

Check it out ... used some right angles from Lowes for 3$ off the rear and front towers. Looks pretty good now just gotta get some pists and cut them shirter, but that was the easy part. Thanks for the good advice and I put it to use!
Hi everyone, I need some help locating replacement shocks for my 10T. I've searched on here and it seems that many of the shocks that have been recommended have since been discontinued. Can anyone please send some advice based on what is currently...
I just scored 4 original RC10T's in really good shape and want to build 3 of them up to look like the 3 Prototype trucks that the team took to the Florida Winter Champs. I've found pics of Cliff Lett's truck but I cant find the other two. Can anyone...

Found a better look! This video, about 20:58. Also looks like all three trucks didn't have the grill decal on them...
I recently purchased a well used RC10T. And the motor plate looks like it has been chewed up. The manual calls for 6604, would the RC10 classic 6603 swap out for this part? Or is the motor plate specific to the truck and I need to keep digging for...

Awesome, thanks. Now on to the other replacement parts.
The C2.1 isn’t for everyone. While they have a wild styling, they also have very little room for electronics. Their curves don’t suit everyone. I wanted to offer a variation with different styling, thus the C2.2
This one was built as a truck (using...

I'm digging it, there's room for it at my place!
Edit: I posted by mobile in a can't sleep mode . Could I get some detail pics of where the trailing arms attach to the chassis plate? Please :D
I'm building an RC10T2 for vintage racing and I would like to run original-style dished yellow wheels. I've been running hex rears while getting it setup but I decided I really hate the appearance of non-dish wheels on old trucks. Trouble is the...
I have a few vehicles (Team AE, HPI, Tamiya) I’ve been working on / collecting for the past 15 years or so. I absolutely love this hobby as I find that these vehicles are functioning works of art. You not only use your brain to build and fix these...
Hey all. Here goes another build thread. Awhile back I was lucky enough to buy a new Andy's RC10T chassis. I don't know much about them, but they seem to be made of some kind of graphite material. The rear layout of the chassis allows you to run...
Last post
Did you ever finish this build?
Not yet. I just need to decide on wheels/tires and what body.
My son got a new toy grade truck and got me itching. Pulled my RC10T3 out of the closet. She’s getting new electronics and a scrubbing. Hope to have her running next week.

Nice truck.... its amazing how our kids get us back into these things. I got back into it the same way. Have fun! You and your kid will have a blast!
Hi guys,
Pulling my T3 out of retirement to play with my kids. I was wondering where i might find bodies to fit my truck? I dont need an original, but something that fits and looks good.
Thanks for a great forum......

They seem to be discontinued when I looked as well.
Hi! My RC10T has been sitting in a closet since I left for college almost.. 20 years ago. My son discovered it recently and I thought it would be fun for us to get it running again. I was pleasantly surprised to find this forum full of similar...

My 2 cents worth would be to go with a more powerful motor and tune down if need be via the speed controller software. Then when you desire more speed it will be there. I use between 3500 and 4200 batteries. They run for quite a long time and charge...
I've been looking for a NIP fluorescent yellow or pink chassis and nose plate for a 10T build to no avail. So I guess I am settling on black for now. What did AE have available for these trucks through the years? I've seen websites breaking down the...
Who has used this RC10T to T2 steering conversion kit and does it work well enough over stock to justify the cost? I'm not currently in need to replace the old stock servo saver setup, but trying to plan for possible future breakage, and given the...
The T3 rear suspension arms are much wider at the hinge pin side than the T4 rear suspension arms. Why did kits from the T4 forward become narrower at the hinge pin mount?
Last post
Thank you for the additional information. Did the durability change with the outer arm mounting?
I pulled this out the other day and rebuilt the engine in another thread as you've probably seen. It's almost too nice to run but there won't be any more GT's joining my family in the foreseeable future, so, back out this...
Last post
Thanks, AM radios would be out of the question, lol, I dont miss those days either.
I used to run a JR XR3 in my T2/GT days (couldn't afford the R1) and they were pretty solid, no glitching on FM and I never had a runaway.
This will sort of be a step by step rebuild of an OS engine.
I want to check the bearings as I put it away many years ago without after run oil and it was a bit gunky. It ran ok last time I used it a few months ago but it didn't feel 100% right,...

Thanks, I probably went a bit overboard but meh, it is what it is :lol:
After some inspiration from mAdMan's high speed build, I decided to throw together some parts I had laying around while waiting on parts for my WC Re-Re build. I'm trying to not let this one spiral out of control too much...

Nice looking trucks. That first one looks wild! :shock: I am in the middle of reevaluating my gt conversion. I felt it was very traction limited on dirt and while it had decent performance on the turf off road track, it was not everything I wanted...
My uncle bought this rc10gt new back in 1997 I believe it was. He ran it for a couple years and then gave it to his brother. He drove it for a couple years then put it away in storage. Last year he gave it back to his brother whom just gave it to me...

I haven’t touched it yet. I’ve been working 70hrs per week.
I’m hoping to tear it apart soon to inspect everything.
I know for sure I need a spur gear, flywheel, clutch system, and clutch bell. Motor mount and possibly a new chassis.
Hey gang -- I recently picked up a 10T on ebay and have been rebuilding it. I took apart, cleaned and rebuilt the diff last night, but I'm unable to get it to rotate smoothly once its properly adjusted. The rings and thrust washers had some light...
After photobucket crashed, not really...but that's what I call it... :lol: I saw that all the pics of my T2 restoration were missing from my earlier thread. So I'm putting them back up again in the order of the progress of my build. It all started...

got this super cheap from a guy that bought it in a storage locker and the truck was full of dust/dirt. have no idea really what this is i would think the chassis would be hard to be homemade due to the bends also it doesnt have the holes drilled...

i tried searching to no luck, how do? you whiten up rpm parts and chassis? id they come with rpm high lighted in black? raised rpm.s there a online manual to see all parts the came in the 10t kit.
Ok , haven't been here in 3years to the month. Just sold a SCX10 and wasn't looking to get into anything else. But after seeing a nice construction site yesterday I got a hankering to build a nitro car. I scored a blue chassis GT on eBay without...
I'm about 99% sure the answer is yes but the seller couldn't say for sure... I bought some rc10gt blocks a few months back that I was told would fit but apparently they are slightly off to mount on an rc10t.

Hi,
Team Associated made running changes, they also recycled some part numbers just to make things confusing,
and there was optional rear mounts and hubs.
ASC6360, 1.5 degrees rear mounts are in the #7001 kit.
Hello, after selling my rc10gt to my Stepfather, over 12-years ago, I decided to buy it back from him. The pull start is no good and I would like to use a modern starter box, but can not confirm that any will work with this older truck. It is using...

Fired her up for the first time since 2003/2004 using the LRP blue competition starter box with just a 2s lipo. Had to use my os #8 glow plug I had laying around new in package. She is almost ready to make bacon on the beach!!
What are you guys using? I see Jconcepts made a set here but appears to never have produced.
I don't see the usual Ebay suspects either? Am I missing the obvious?

Just to be clear topshaft and idler same RC10T to T2, differential is difference? I have my 1st of each on the way from the bay so I haven't taken either apart yet.
Hey, I have been searching for these rat stickers for the last week with no luck, messaged the owner of the truck he didn't know where they came from. Has anyone seen the rat before? I want and can't find!! Thanks for any leads!

Thanks so much! I was typing in everything but parma.. should have seen that on the body now that I looked at the photos again.. Thanks again!!
Picked up a truck today with a Truck today and need a little help with verifying what I have here. I think it's a T2 or T3. I've never owned a T2 and my son got my last T3 so I've got nothing to compare to and they look awfully similar in pics on...

I think I'm going to do that. Truck conversion would be a cool rc10 variation for the collection 8)

Found a couple RPM derlin pivots I'm going to try. Thanks for measuring them to compare.
