Custom Works Adjustable Arms

Post by Johnboy72 »

Anyone know what buggy will fit the Custom Work Adjustable arms? I would assume the B3. Just wondering if there is a set that could be modified for an RC10.

As far as I know they only make adjustable arms for trucks. I don't think they make a narrower set for cars. I'm not 100% certain though.

Fred, I think you might be talking about the Dynotech arms? CW makes arms for their oval cars with adjustable rear toe and I think Johnboy is right that they are B3 length (plus a wider version).


If they're too wide maybe you could narrow up the RC10 rear end with RPM Worlds arm mounts?

Yeah I'm talking about the adjustable toe CW arms. I'm just not sure if they only make them for trucks or also buggies. Since so much of their car is B3 based, they've probably got something that'll work.

Googled it and CW does make SC10 arms so my mistake.

I believe John is talking about the Intimidator, Dominator, & Enforcer arms which come in standard and wide widths.

Tower lists the unadjustable wide car arms as 85mm long and B3 arms at 80mm.

Only reason I'm asking is one, I know some on here run modern dirt oval and two, I have some random parts here and there. So if I can confirm (probably have to call CW), I can order the right arms (they are making them for more platforms from what I've seen) and start modifying. I just think it would be cool to have that much technology in our RC10s on the track.

The problem with the CW arms is that the swivel point is too far inward which results in a wheelbase change with the change in toe.
