Gt parts that will work: front steering arms and castor block, rear carriers (with bearing swap), steering (get the whole assy)
The ones that WON'T: arms, rear mounts, front bulkhead, towers

Wow, a lot of that stuff is crazy expensive! $40 for rear arm mounts? Wow. I have some aluminum arms from Atlas but they just too nice to put on my runner.

There's also alloy body posts on the bay. Pretty snazzy lookin. I've never been one for alloy stuff but most of it seems to still be available.
have found a lot of things since joing the forum. Thanx to all. Now, I need to get duckies in a row to pay for all of this..lol

Maybe this is an old thread, but may I ask why you want aluminum suspension arms? Plastic ones are still available.
Is this going to be a runner or a shelf queen?

I didn't realise so many parts were interchangable from old to new. It has given me a few ideas for my RC10 World's. Thanks for sharing all the info. This place is very helpful!

Not only are there interchangeable parts, you can still buy many actual Associated parts for the Rc10. They are still in production. You do not want aluminum suspension components on a runner.
