Robinson Racing use to make one. I included one with the A&L car I sold a while back. I don't have a good enough picture to post of it. Sorry.

TMS made some as well. They are just as hard to find. I don't ever recall seeing a Hot Trick parts, but that doesn't mean they didn't make any.

Ranch Pit Shop made one as well (used on Jammin Jay replicas
), and bizarrely it too is hard to find.
I also had one from a company whose name escapes me, which allows for a double bearing configuration. Pretty cool and if I knew then what I know now I'd have kept it.

Ok, the smallest Marvel Mystery Oil I could find was a Pint, for about $3.75 (tax included). Can it be used for ANYTHING in ANY RC? Cause I hated to buy a "WHOLE" pint
for the 10/15 DROPS I'll use on this 1 Car. I mean is it safe for ALL RC Plastics?
Putting the 6-Gear back together as I type.

MMO ROCKS!!! I love the stuff. But I have never seen one of these before now. Interesting idea. Did it work? You don't see them at Advance.
Sorry to hi-jack the thread Monster. You know how I am.

Yeah, I know about its Automotive uses, I sold Auto Parts for a few years. It was just 1 of my many many "careers".
Really just wanted to know if it
wasnt safe on certain types of RC Plastics.
We ALL know
how you are, Tad.
You'd probably have STAB one of the Members here, for anyone to be upset with you.
