I just ordered the last one he had. I wanted to do this to mine for a while. I have a nds so this will help me run normal lipos in the car where the rc10gt I can only run short lipos. Please keep the pics coming.

For sure man, just realizing the rear suspension swap is way more involved then just swapping parts directly over..............................

From what I see look like you can use the stock front bulk head look to be same shape.and reason us the kits instead of the factory one. And would you say the chassis is thicker than the aluminum chasis

Yes looks like you can use the same shock tower but the kit shock tower looks to be a stronger design. The chassis is the same thickness as the stock tower material so yes it’s thicker.

Finished up the rear, requires flipping the arms and moving the spacer on the axle carrier to the other side to get the correct wheelbase back. Swaybar I just flipped it backwards not sure if its going to work I may have to mount some stops so it doesnt pop out from behind the shock tower but its in their tight....

IM SOO JEALOUS OF THE CVDS.WOULD YOU BY ANY CHANCE HAVE THE CVD PART NUMBER SO I CAN EMAIL OR WHOEVER MAKES THEM IF THEY HAVE THEM. MY SOLUTION IS OK FOR SHELF QUEENS NOT FOR WHAT IM GONNA DO. IM GONNA RUN JACO BIG FOAMS ON THE BACK AND SEE HOW THE CAR DOES IN DRAG AGAINST THESE NEWER CARS.
if you want to keep that slammed to the ground look but improve the rear squat, you can probably swap in these rear hubs, which will raise the axle centerline and bring the rear arms more level.
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas Factory Works website

they should pretty much be a drop in, and offer 2 lower arm positions. Your upper link may need to be adjusted out a bit however.
Thanks for the tip bud, I'm kind of new to the onroad game been an offroader all my life, I didnt realize the slammed look isnt a thing with these cars. I cant imagine how much lower it will be with the electronics in her. So arms level like my offroad truck
Anymore recommendations guys, how about my swaybars, shock oil weight and so on anymore tips.........................

:D Hi Everyone. Here is a thread on a project i started in December 2017. During the holidays I found a RC10 mid engine buggy conversion. Mind you, im not a buggy guy. It was a nice, clean and simple design with a few custom parts like the chassis....

Vary nice job,I really like the pantera body.
Thanks, it was the appropriate body for a mid-engine car
Holy Mother of Space Goats, Batman!!! That turned out awesome!
Nicely done!
HAHAHA Thanks...this was a cool project outcome i think....
I've had a RC10 since '87 (bought it used). I'm pretty sure my first was a 'Edinger' car. I am planning on reassembling that collection of parts n the future.
For now, this is some of the parts that...

Painted the neon rims -- I like it. Runs great-- had to put the wheelie bar back on for running a 3 cell. My buddies 3s Slash clocks itself at 53MPH, and this thing pulls on it, easily. :)
This is my mid motor conversion based on a hacked graphite chassis.
It started out about 5 years ago when I got a graphite chassis for cheap or even free from someone off ebay or here who did not really know that the graphite chassis does not come...

Well, the main goal was to move servo and battery as far forward as possible.
Laying the servo down as in a B3 or b4 causes interference with the nose brace tubes. Keeping the servo where it is is too close the the bellcrank connection. That is why...
Can anyone tell me the width of the front bulkhead where the inner hinge pin passes through? I trying to figure out if standard off road rc10 front arms would mount to this bulkhead. Thanks
