Yokomo 834B Info

[nvxwax]

Ok i dont know anything about the 834B cars, I think thats what this car is, it looks to have some custom (home made) parts and modifications on it lol. What can you Yoke experts see from the one pic i have of it.

Im debating what i should do with it, I just got it from eBay and i need another project like i need a hole in the head lol, How hard are parts to source for this model? I have not received it yet...

[RedScampi]

Well, I'm no expert but I do have one of these. I think they are extremely cool because they're so different! From what I see on yours the shocks are non original, look like associated up front replacing the stock monoshock setup. Rears I don't know, Kyosho maybe? Rear shock tower is non-original also not sure of the make. MSC looks like Tamiya to me. The front bumper is a mystery as well, could be home made. It looks like it should clean up well to me. Good score!

So, that's where that one went.

Well the 834B arrived, It looks to have a lot of custom (home made) work done, I know nothing about 834's so can anybody tell me what is original, custom and aftermarket.

Tamiya MSC
AE Front shocks
Plexiglass Front lower arms ???

Nice plexiglass arms on that beast. That is definately something I have never seen before.

yeah me neither lol, they actually look pretty good for being hand made from what i can tell, they got them a little short (notice the camber lol)

I'm no expert, but it looks to me like:

-- Kyosho Landjump rear shocks
-- Delta rear shock tower/roll bar
-- Delta slipper
-- Hot Trick??? front shock tower
-- Hot Trick??? rear bracket
-- Possibly the original kydex chassis, but someone got creative cutting up the bumper for clearance and it looks rounded on the sides.

[Asso_man!]

Rear shock collars and cups are from Parma (they should be blue anodised)

[Bormac]

Check out those wood screws in the lower front shock mounts. Ive got some of them in my Carpentry tool kit. I usualy use those for screwing hinges to door jambs

*Jokes.

she is very used but has some nice upgrade's, those hot trick part's fetch some good money especially when new, delta slipper

Thanks, I did not know they came with kydex for the chassis, i also thought the front shock tower looked to well machined to be home made.

You are correct, they are blue, just dirty as hell lol

lol, it looks like this car may have had a double life lol, looks like a racer originally owned it then was owned by a basher lol.

Thanks, i am still trying to find this delta slipper you guys are talking about lol, im guessing its the silver round thing

Thanks, I might just have to clean this car up a bit, I dont really need another project but i wonder how well it will clean up lol

[nvxwax]

Well after a little cleaning im going to have to let this car go to the bay lol, way to much work lol.
