Shock tower of Edinger car?

Quote

Post by brn2fly » Fri Dec 01, 2023 8:36 am

I’m trying to restore and/or make correct my RC10 Collection. After reading the 25 years of the RC10 thread it appears I have a Cadillac chassis with Edinger parts. The chassis is the darker gold. It does have the thicker mill front shock tower. Should the rear shock tower be thicker like the front one?

Some late Edinger parts were packaged in early Cadillac kits. Lots of running production changes, and of course the location change.

Hi,

I'm new here but have four RC10's. My original RC10 I bought as a kid in '89, two B6's and a B64.

My question, with the B64 front shock tower being prone to blowing out, would it be better to replace with an aluminum one or would the B74 front...

Doubling up would be a good backup, thanks for the suggestion.

I've ordered the PSM shock tower. I'll let you know how it goes.

With respect to Joey (jkracing) I'm going to start this thread so anyone could easily find the RC10T2 mod in it's own thread, and not go digging for it.

But first a little back history on the RC10T and its 1994 ROAR NATIONALS prototype shock...

Hi,
Does anybody make the 94 prototype rear shock tower, or have dimensions available.

Thanks

I have noticed some early box art photos of the early rc10 edinger on other sites. Some pics show a gold shock and some pics i have seen with a plain aluminum shock that is unanodized .i have the lite gold shocks with the large rear spring cups and...

Last post

Production cars have gold as scr8p said, the silver with the set-screw collars are box-art/prototype. Proto/box-art cars are truly fantasy at this point in time.

We've now seen a decent handful of early Edinger cars to have some idea of what the...

Hello all,
Does anyone know the outer diameter of the shock gaskets used on early Edinger RC10's
When was the diameter changed? Were these early only or early and mid Edingers?

Was the part kept at the same number 6468?

Last post

The early one were like half that width. Only slightly larger than the cap.

Broke my b3s shock tower today. Is the b4s tower similar? Or any other front tower i could use? Even if I have to drill out new holes.....?

Last post

We were going to use the bullet wing mounts, too, but decided to go with these little guys instead:

Ahh raceway, I haven't seen those before. They look kind of like KSG's, just less expensive 8) Thanks for the info! 8)

Any idea when the rear shock tower was changed from a single mount to a dual mount ?

Last post

Rear shock tower could have been changed as that was simple, just a couple of screws. Back then sometimes you changed things just to make your car look like the newer models that just came out. More shock positions could also equal better handling...

Hello. Would anyone have any idea of what brand this shock tower could be? It's fiberglass, extended for use with .89 shocks, and measures .097 thick. My first thought was Jay Dub but his I think were made of G10, and only had two holes for the...

Not mine, we don’t have the extra camber link holes up that high.
