The left overs.

Post by Synergy »

This is what I have left after yesterdays mad building session. I also have a CE shock tower set and some dog bone drive shafts not pictured. Please help me with some advice, do I have enough stuff to at least put the Tekin together when it arrives :?:

Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

From the looks of it I think you should have enough for a Tekin chassis build.

Perhap's you can buy a pair of black wide track A arm (asso or RPM) and a complete set of black asso turnbuckle (15$).

With the Tekin kit, you remove the front plate, including nose tubes, and put the entire thing on the Tekin chassis. So whatever works on the front of an RC10 works on a Tekin chassis.
For the rear, you will need a Stealth tranny (but not the motor plate), hub carriers, tie rods (no change from stock length required), standard length shocks, axles, bearings, inner arm mounts.

If you have a full RC10 w/ Stealth, the Tekin kit comes with everything you need.
Bought my first RC10 in 1989

It looks to me that between those two cars you have everything you need except for dogbones. But yuck, don't put dogbones on a Stealth! CAN you?

You can still find lots of RC10 parts at Tower Hobbies. For your project, if you want to spend that much money, you can find those parts:

:D Thanks for the advice guys that all sounds like good news, I will definitely be putting an order into tower for some of that stuff ra272, I already have a black stealth case on it's way, I will use the wide arms I bought from Mr. FifthScaleRacer and I will dye the rest. Great I won't have a lot left after that, nice and efficient :D
