One a all original ed. A hot tricks.and a gold pan i still wonder about. The graphite i am going to bling out as its my first car with really low use.the ed car i posted first will be a modern runner and the hot tricks will gwt a truck set up with buggy wheels and body.oh come on now i goota order another blue screw set because it only has one steering screw? I knew i should have gotten two.guess i will order two more and use them for the hot tricks chassis as well.

If you mean the turn buckles, you can use factory team from the GT, same length as the 10T , That's what I got on my 10T, Tower has them. There sold in packs of two.

My bad, totally different turn buckles. For some reason I was thinking truck. But still if you know the length of turn buckles you want, The blue one are sold in many sizes.

Money can be spent very quickly in this hobby, and yet I refuse to buy blinds for our window in the guest room.

Ok so here is my graphite i have owned since new.it just got new titanium turnbuckles and rod ends.also a new kranzels hobby shop steering setup.shocks have been rebuilt also cleaned and regreased trans.the b4 i got on the cheap seems a shame to take apart a new car to strip for parts but it will give me new wheel 2.4 radio setup brushless setup topshaft setup and what ever else i need.has anybody used the terminator cars a arms? If so how did it work out?they will hook up to the a arm mounts and kranzels hub carriers.
