Been looking for a 94/95 YZ-10 for a while, and finally got one. Special thanks to Ron (Rattlesnaker on this board). It looks like a 94 YZ-10 to me with some mods. I'm gonna take some detailed shots of the mods later, I really didn't have much time to inspect it last night, but comparing to the standard 94 YZ10, it seems to have:

shaved (OG) front tower
alum. front knuckles
alum. battery posts
slipper and center one-way assembly
CF upper deck
Losi springs and shock retainers
aftermarker BB steering assembly



It also came with the wing mount and gold button, forgot to include it in the pic.

Question: What parts from the onroad counterpart (YR4's) are compatible with this buggy? I know my LHS has a few YR4 parts. The motor mount on this has a few drilled holes, I'm thinking of replacing it but I don't know which one from the YR4 series will fit. There seem to a lot of variations of the YR4, there's YR4 II, M, M II, and some Type Js. Are the belts interchangeable too? If anybody can clarify for me, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

as you said some upgrade with original YZ10'94
front tower modifield
original front knuckles is plastics
changed the bettery post to alum. one
TCS slipper and center one-way ,original is direct drive hub
pavadis upper deck,original is the white one
Losi shocks
steering system has been changed
motor plate as same as all yokomo magnesium one，drill holes may lighter weights

YR-4 parts witch can used only knuckle hubs arms modified and hub carrier，motor plate，zc656 rear belt，YR-4 MII rear differential

I think the shocks are original Yokomo, only the retainers and springs are Losi. I'll have a closer look later.

Would you know which one of these motor mounts will fit the buggy?

ZR-304J1 Light Weight Alum Motor Mount, Stick/Saddle For YR-4J
ZR-304J2 Stick Blue Motor Mount For YR-4J

Thanks for the help so far.

Those look to be the Yoke shocks.

Neither of those motor mounts will work. You need the magnesium, single piece one, like the YR4 and earlier YZ10 models.

Great, thanks! I just got the part numbers off the shop's website, good thing I checked here first.

The current motor mount still works, but I know it has holes.

I'll give this buggy a bath soon, and I'll post pics as I go and show the non-standard hop-ups/mods.

Nice score ! Didn' t think Ron would let any of those go lol. LMK what you need , I will bring my parts box next time i see you . Congrats again !

they only fit to type-J and they are two piece separate structure. J2 light weight than J1

Thanks Paul! I'm very happy Ron let this one go. I'm almost finished cleaning up the parts.. You can tell this buggy was well taken care of, no worn out parts, no stripped threads and hack jobs. Hey Paul, do you have a spare mag motor mount and upper cover?

some nice optional part's on there!!! nice buy

Ganda pre,

nice score, same as With Gen.shipped together with my orange 10. maybe you can spare the front hub for rc10 axle

jun.

Gen bought the stock 94??? Congrats to him!
The adaptor? I'm using them on my RC10s to use the 2.2 JC wheels.

Happy New Year Yoke boys!

Yup! the stock YZ10 its on its way from singapore.....probably my new years gift along with the Orange modified RC10.....from slow_jun.

Nice car Marvin! I like that "exploded view" pic, really cool.

Ya, I normally don't let stuff go, but that NIB Magnum 3PG was just too tempting! (Thanks Marvin) Actually it is only the second car I've ever let go, my first one was OptimaMid back in the '80's and have regretted that ever since.

Yup Marvin, shipped it together with my orange 10 last 26. it should be with geefroce59 sometime next week, still waiting for my yoke blue. anyway thanks, should you have or know someone that has one extra, please let me know,

Then will be seeing Geeforce post in the next few days...... hahahah... cant wait....
thanks,

Jun.
