A-arm set screws source

Quote

Post by paul » Tue Jun 29, 2010 7:15 pm

Hi Guys,
I've been looking at tower, but cannot seem to find set screws that match the originals for the front a-arms. I'm measuring the length as 5/16 long with a .050 allen head. Most everything on tower is metric. Does anyone know if there is something comparable on their site? Thanks!

EDIT: these are only 3/16, but I'm thinking they'll work: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXNTF5&P=7

what size hex are mip set screws? i got a new t4 cvd set for my 10t but i don't think any of my tools fit, sae or metric.

i found it really odd.

Last post

if the .050 won't go in, it's possible there is crud in the hex of the set screw. check it out carefully, that's good, it means it's a tight tolerance, and you might just have to force it in there. at least the hex is too small vs. too open and...

Just set screws in general, for the RC10 buggy, like the ones holding in the shock pins, or the ones on the linkage collars. I know it's a noob question, I just have no idea where to look.

How dumb is this--set screws don't fit joints!

This is really stupid...I purchased 2 sets of these nice Duratrax joints, which are a nice upgrade for the stock black Kyosho joints. The Duratrax joints included set screws. However, upon trying to insert the set screws into the holes, they only...

Last post

sure sound like some imperial vs. metric issue here... you can screw it on for like 1.5 turns, then you run out of space between treads.
I think you're bang on. That's exactly what I've noticed. Fortunately I have a bunch of the correct set screws...

So, I fitted a #6801 front axle conversion kit, including securing the axles to the hinge pins with the provided set screws, then found one of the axles was out of spec and wouldn't accept the wheel bearings.

I have a replacement axle but, coming...

Well the JB Weld didn't work.

Whatever is holding that screw in certainly has a grip on it.

I'll have to continue with alternative parts and revisit this screw at a later date when I have the equipment to try drilling it out.

Here are some relatively rare Yokomo 870c white nylon suspension arms. I'm tempted to replace the black arms with these.
As close to Jesus' legendary cup as there is :)

If you want an alternative, I have had these floating around for years, honestly, until today didn’t realize they were that rare….these look like fronts? But happy to chat if you need them.

I will have to pass on your generosity as I will be...

Can any of you gents tell me which one is easier to drive or better for racing? I currently have a Team car with the long arms, but have often wondered if a WOIN long arm version would be better. Just a thought. Thanks in advance

dynotech klein arms are it, unless you have a set of actual rpm wolrds arms, or find a set of jake's arms. or come up with something totally different.
