The manual shows a trimmed and a stock one, just needs a small notch at the bottom for the tie rod

Well said!Phin wrote:Slow down dude! You're making the rest of us that drag our feet on projects feel like crap. It's too much pressure to want to try and keep up. :lol

This would be the perfect project for scr8p to take on since it uses RC10 and Kyosho parts, but he wouldn't even have read the manual by now.

What an entertaining build gomachv. Kudos for taking on such a project.
I (among others) am very curious to see what type of performance this conversion offers compared to a similar RC10 or other kit from the same era.
Keep up the good work

A little progress, still have a few things that don't line up but had to show off my groovy era correct Parma adjustable offset wheels and Parma/You-G tires. I think they fit the build well

Holy buckets that looks sweet! I have never seen those rims or tires before! Pretty neat looking for this build and like you said fit it to a "T".
Great job!
Great job!

Cool wheels! I don't think there were enough modular adjustable-offset wheels ever made. I also love those tires, I had 2 sets of those saved from back in the 80's, I put them on wheels for the Marui Galaxy I rebuilt for my brother.gomachv wrote:A little progress, still have a few things that don't line up but had to show off my groovy era correct Parma adjustable offset wheels and Parma/You-G tires.

Borrowed some .56's for the rear- just right. The front will need some tweaking as it doesn't have enough travel yet.

Here you can see the 4ws

Re: A-Main Bullet Fwd 4ws RC10 conversion Tribute build
What's shorting the front suspension travel...the shock bottoms out too quick, or is there binding in the arms/links?
