Main reason is 100deg is lower profile than standard 82deg hardware which is ideal for thin materials like those used for the thin aluminum chassis.

On the flip side 82deg is the standard for normal imperial hardware so easier to source.

Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Yep, gather the lynch mob. I plan on racing it. Early parts and all. Brushless as well. Once JConcepts releases the Rips/DDs for the vintage crowd, I will get a full set onto original 5 spoke Losi wheels to race with. For now, it will have B4...

Hi guys,

After the successful builds of the first three SWB models I thought it was time to look at the LWB ones. The Optima Mid Custom will be my first Optima Mid LWB ever :wink:

It was released as a budget Optima Mid with its Black Dumper shocks...

Last post

Truly amazing work and attention to detail in this MID build. It's very refreshing to see the car built exactly the way it was intended. Very neat. These shots could be used as a luxury build manual for the MID. Top notch work and very inspiring!...

Our local hobby shop charges a premium for vintage parts. You can hardly get buggy rims there any more, much less 2.0. :x

Hi all,

I'm new to the board - I think this is only my 2nd post. I've been enjoying looking at all the vintage cars and builds. I've been racing since 1987 and have probably wheeled every one of the cars on these boards at one time or another. It's...

Hello all,
After reading about the Traxxas SRT, I wanted to build my Rustler into something raceworthy, combining the best parts of the stock Rustler, the SRT, and Jang's Ultimate Rustler build. I mostly know what I'm going to do, but I still have a...

I drilled tiny holes perpendicular to the hingepin so that i could insert my syringe oiler and lube from inside out and flush them out. So far it works great, i just lube up each pack and have no slop develop yet. Did this on bulkheads as well. I...
