Quarter Flash Arm Mounts?
I got 2 sets of rc10 arm mounts in a lot purchase. Unfortunately they were drilled out for bearings like the Quarter Flash arms. Has anyone ever seen the arm mounts done by them? I know I haven't. I also know doing this is not hard.... I've done it myself to a pair of arms years ago. So it doesn't have to be some manufacturers parts. Just some guy in basement.

Re: Quarter Flash Arm Mounts?
Never seen the arm mounts bored out. How did they do the back side without breaking them off the tree?

Re: Quarter Flash Arm Mounts?
There's a pic of some arms in this thread. They bore out the ends and installed 1/8 x 1/4 bearings for the hinge pin to ride on.

New in package arms in this thread. They made them for the 10t also.

Re: Quarter Flash Arm Mounts?
I'd heard the bearings had been from a slot car application so they should be easily found I would think.

Re: Quarter Flash Arm Mounts?
You can't rule out that they are 'home-made' but I am 99.9% sure they are Quarter Flash items. I have a set of the front and rear arm mounts on my Fibre-Lyte RC10. Definitely cool pieces but the stock arm mounts work just as well imo
The front arm mounts that I have needed to be massaged ever so slightly as the drilling process caused the edges to flare out and subsequently they were rubbing on the a-arms.
The bearings are tiny but like Al mentioned, they should be easy enough to find.
