it has the losi carriers, but sliders are raborn. i wanted to use them on this, but they bind too much with the suspension droop. i don't want to clearance the arms to make them work, since there isn't that much material on them to start with. so, it'll probably get a set of mip cvd's.
as for the other "junk" in the pic, that's what my wife calls it.
Mission completed I'm very happy with the result, the only question remaining is about the shocks... are they from a Yok? I really don't know since they come from a RC10 donor car. Anyone can back me up?
Any comments or critics are welcome

I guess you could also place it more rearward, but my place seems to be shrinking and I need space... seriously, it's weird but seems functional. There is no indication in the Tekin manual about any wing config. As for the body, they say it accept almost every body for the stock RC10, just need some more cutting

Asso_man!, scr8p... did either of you have an issue with the lower shock mount holes in the rear arms?
Primarily due to finding this damn board, I went out and unboxed all my old RC stuff and got to tinkering with stuff.
One of the things I had forgotten is how the holes in the Tekin arms were too big and the screw just slides in and out.
yes | no | maybe ?
I have a nib champ car that came with all black parts. I recieved a tekin chassis nib from ebay. I plan to to combine both kits to build the tekin chassis kit to a complete car. Whats the active link all about . Do I need any other parts?

You have to take the nose plate and bend it to change the kick up. And I would hate to see you mess up that Team car.
you don't have to do that, just like you don't have to use the losi hub carriers. with their testing, that seemed to be the best...
thanks rctenracer for the chassis kit :) going to do a pretty much basic build nothing fancy. fyi the holeshot heat sink i added was not part of the kit.
So I am finally getting closer to completing my Tekin conversion RC10 and cant seem to find a good body that fits well. Any suggestions or pictures of bodies on the old Tekin chassis? I went with the black and gold theme.

Can't help with the body - but I like the build! :)
Been away from here and the hobby for quite some time, mainly due to a huge move to a new house and the Photobucket buggers totally discouraged me to restore all the picture inputs I had made on this fantastic forum.
Now thanks...

Jeff provided a chart in this thread: referring to the Gold Label Dymond motors. Just for future reference.
Thanks for digging that out! Quite an obscure line of motors.
