Graphite do-over
Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2007 7:45 pm
After building a couple of my other RC10's, I was sensing my Graphite buggy was getting jealous of all the sweet parts I was using on the others. So how best to appease it than to do a refresh with some nice aftermarket parts.
I had originally built it up with a lot more stock parts than I wanted to. The front drive shafts on my MIP 4wd kit are fairly short which means I had to use the stock front narrow arms. becuase I used the stock arms, I used stock suspension parts for the rest of the buggy. Then luckily I was able to score some narrow front andy's arms from Scr8p. Those were the hinge pin for going all out on the buggy. the blue dye was starting to fade so I decided to go all black which looks quite stealthy.
