Found some new rear Bullet rims! Also watching e-bay for the novak esc. Got a wing and losi wire and mounts as well. Just need to find the motor, servo, and the hardest part, a body! Pics to come!

If you want to get rid of it let me know :D

Well to update this thread I got a bunch of new parts and am going to start getting this project wrapped up soon. I got the blue front shock shafts, Novak ESC, and some more parts are on the way, including the bullet rear rims, just need to find some Losi X pattern tires for them. Now if I could just get Mr. Lexan to reproduce the body I would be set!

I should have more than a few parts left over from this build so if you are looking for parts the left overs will be in the BST area soon.

Hi Guys cool, thread, any ideas on how the AE front wheels were adapted?

Was this the spec used at the 91 Detroit worlds? I believe the TRX-1 piloted by Scott Montgomery qualified 4th at that event.

I think the AE wheels are a direct fit?

Got some work done last night, but after reviewing some more pictures I see Scott ran black shock adjustors up front. So I'll have to take the white off tonight and luckily I have some black one's that will work. For the rear I'm guessing he used RPM clips, the AE B4RS uses these so I'll have to get a set to see if they work.

Now to get Kenooze to sell me that motor and Mr. Lexan to get the repro bodies going! :wink:

I love the TRX-1. I started racing a Traxxas Bullet before I got my first RC10 and never raced another car. But when this one came out I almost switch back. I am looking forward on this built, looking good Konich. :mrgreen:

Hi Konich,

I know B4 fronts don't fit and they are the same size as most other AE - 3/16 x 3/8.
TRX-1 Bearings are 5X11mm.

I wonder if they were using AE axles, or drilled the wheel?

either rc10, or losi front axles, the losi axles look a little more like the TRX1 factory part, but with black nylon and 3/16" axles. Maybe thats what they used?

highwayracer once told us he press-fitted 8x4 mm bearings in rc10 front hubs to use on his ultima. So I guess you could also pres-fit 8X5 mm bearings in them so they'd work on the stock 5mm axle of the trx-1
