RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Hey guys im new here but i recognize some names from tamiyaclub. I was wondering if there would be any interest in aluminum vintage rc 10 parts like chassis and suspension parts. Let me know.

rear arm mounts would be of huge interest im sure, as well as front/rear arms probably. shock towers would be of interest also im sure

Are you thinking of doing a repo chassis?

There is definitely interest for these parts. Look at this thread (as an example of such interest): http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11729

Not a repro chassis just a nice aluminum chassis that will be CNC machined and milled to be light.

If I were you I would rather have a look at an ally chassis for the sc10. I hear it has a weak spot near the front.

A few might be interested in a 50mm (2") lengthened RC10T chassis so that we can have a SC10T.

I was also thinking about a aluminum gear cover similiar to my rough rider and sand scorcher ones. It would have a hole with plug to adjust the diff on the old six gear tranny and the slipper on the stealth.

So i will look at doing the rear 3 degree arm mounts and im also looking at ball bearing steering kit and also aluminum wheels. Let me know if there are other parts you guys are interested in.

if you are feeling up to it aluminum stealth tranny cases would be sweet !

I kinda like your first idea of a milled aluminum chassis. Is this something you have done? I would love to have a custom chassis of my own design carved out of alu! I say go for it!

this sounds like a cool idea. i would like to see some photos of any previous ones you might have done. something like the Durango prototype.

I have a friend that has a CNC machine and he has been making me parts for the sand scorcher and rough rider and now he just got a CNC lathe so he is going to be making wheels for me. I thought a aluminum chassis might be of some interest.

I'd definitely be interested in getting an allu chassis. Something like the graphite AE one but made of alluminum with sides slightly bent for rigidity. A motor plate with heat sink and a gear cover would also be winner...

The graphite style is what im looking at but i need to get a hold of one first or I will design a similiar one from an aluminum tub chassis.

On this post you can see my sassy chassis RC10. The aluminum body is nice but it would need to be bent a little on the sides. It flexes to much. It is also too wide and stick out of the body in the front.
