When I built mine, I used 3mm shock shafts so it was easy to attach the ti-rod between the A-Arms. I used the std Yokomo threaded ball end. I just threaded the ball end on the threaded portion of the shock shaft and used the e-clip on the other end. Sorry don't remember the part no of the shock shaft, but it was from a Kyosho off-road car. I would think you can find other 3mm shock shafts the correct length.

thanks Mike.....this is another good alternative method.....
I have always like the extra graphite near the rear of the car. Even back in the early 90's when I ran the Yok's weekly. I would run the speed control next to the spur gear to offset the weight of the motor some with some lead. You would need to remove the speed control every time you mess with the motor but I thought the car ran better that way. If your running brushless there's very little need to touch the motor/gearing. I know the extra material near the front forced me to run newer body shells and that was something new I never had done before. It would be no problem making any mods people want. I was just using simple aluminum tubes for battery standoffs, that were internally threaded on both ends.
Ok... So here it is. From what I know. Its all original except the rear tire that are cheap New Brights. I would like to restore it and make it a nice runner with period correct electronic and upgraded aluminum rims. 2.0 all the way around. Tell me...

Thanks for the kind words! I think you will be fine on your worlds car as long as the chassis and hard to find pieces are good. I think the worlds car is like the Shelby Mustang of RC10's so they are worth the investment. Good luck with your build.
Here's My RC10 Racer Project. It Has a Traxxas 20 Turn Stinger Motor, a Duratrax Sprint 2 ESC, and a Vintage Futaba Radio (original).Its in Pretty Good Condition Other Than A Piece Of **** Body. It Has Bean In The Family For Years. My Dad Bought It...
This is gonna be a resto project for me. Hopefully it is not too bad of condition, for the price, I think it will be a good starting point. What do you guys think?
Thanks guys!
