I've made some custom rear body posts from aluminum alloy for the truck. The black ones (OEM) had the hole just a bit to high, hence the new ones. I'm contemplating something for the front posts... not sure yet. I'm really wanting to skip ahead to painting the body. I'll get my red Sharpie pen out and start getting some guide lines.
I got an ESC for the truck the other day... Hobby Wing QUICRUN 10BL120 w/Program Card. I added a PSM Carbon Fiber fan guard. Next is to get a Tx/Rx. Futaba is out of stock so I don't know what I'm going to do
Just thought I'd post up a couple of pics of this RC10 chassis plate which I dont have the parts for.Just wondering who makes it and what it is exactly.

Yes its the HOUGE chassis that uses swingarms on the rear only either black plastic ones or aluminum ones.DON 8)
i found this setup in an old parts box at my lhs. i like hobby shops that have been around a LONG time, and they let you rumage through their storage room. you'll always find some neat old stuff.

Well I'm in So Cal and the best one I know is Pegasus Hobbies in Montclair (for aftermarket old stock anyways). As far as factory Associated parts I just get them from tower or of course ebay. Andy Jacobson which we know as the Andy's originator...
I fully understand theory but what I'd like to know is how do they drive compared to the standard a-arm setups? The only trailing arm car I've ever driven is my JRX2 with it's 5 link suspension which is sort of an evolved trailing arm setup. There...

I used to race an RC-10 with an Andys composite chassis and Andys trailing arms in the early 90's, similar to the A&L ones. The only thing I didn't like about them is that the camber changed alot through the range of motion.
I feel like noobe all over again. I started this build years ago when painting an extra body I had lying around. After sitting on it awhile I've finally decided to pull the trigger on the A&L chassis kit. I opted for the 4 hole front tower and...

A big shout out to Frankentruck for the goodies. He sent a white and a black 3d printed rear bulkhead so I didn't have to chop up a decent vintage one.
The white wins me over for now despite the little bit of warping.
I've got this build going rather well now, still need a few more parts and work to get it rolling. Most of the Associated parts were sourced from eBay chop shop sellers.
