Fibrelyte RPM front shock tower

Quote

Post by rc10uk » Thu May 30, 2013 5:15 am

I have a Fibrelyte RPM front shock tower that came in a job lot of carbon bits. I'm thinking of fitting it as part of a plan to use longer shocks and widen the front end on my Rc10 but i'm not sure what bulkhead is required for this one?

Is it the truck style front shock bulkhead mount? As the tower is similar to the truck front tower. Or do you have to find the rpm conversion mount?

Many thanks.

You would need a truck kick up together with a truck front bulkhead and wide RPM or Dynotech A-arms. Good luck!

Hi,

I'm new here but have four RC10's. My original RC10 I bought as a kid in '89, two B6's and a B64.

My question, with the B64 front shock tower being prone to blowing out, would it be better to replace with an aluminum one or would the B74 front...

Last post

Doubling up would be a good backup, thanks for the suggestion.

I've ordered the PSM shock tower. I'll let you know how it goes.

I happened to see a photo about a YZ-10 recently, probably it belonged to Brian Kinwald with his typical painting scheme.

Anyone knows whether the front shock tower was custom-made or available in the market ??

thanks !!

I've seen this tower on a few of the rpm cars here, and wondered if any computer whiz had ever scanned one? A copy I could print would be really helpful! Mostly I'm curious about how the upper shock holes would compare to a stock shock tower. Maybe...

Last post

the outside holes on the worlds tower line up with the inside holes on a stock rc10 tower. the worlds tower has 2 more holes per side to the inside.

Never seen these before (tried to search here also) - This came with a graphite I bought while ago and it looks too nice to be home made. It seems like stamped or cut and not machined or drilled. Has anyone seen like before?

Last post

I measured the thickness and it's only 0.8mm. Material is also ferromagnetic, so something iron based. Probably it's someone's one-off custom part - quite decent looking though. Not sure if I am going to use it either...

I'm starting to build my A&L chassis and want to do something a little different atleast. I have a buggy with what I believe is a A&L front shock tower for the RC10T. My question is, would it look alright on a A&L glass chassis kit?

Last post

Yeah, I thought it would help smooth out jumps a bit but this one will only do shelf duty. The buggy pictured though has a very interesting future I shall share soon ;).

I'm looking for the graphite worlds front shock tower. I'd be interested in more than one.

Last post

Yeah, AE discontinued that tower. I tried to order a bunch of cool stuff like that from AE a couple months ago and it was all discontinued. They are still making most of the basic parts for the old RC10's, but slowly the supply is drying up.

You're...

not sure if its been done or tested, but i found 4-5 at my LHS and decided to give it a try, comes out perfect. Bottom needs about .5 mm sanded off, and then just holes drilled to match.

Last post

just to clarify too, you will need to take like 1mm off the bottom of the XX plate otherwise it wont sit right on the RC10 noseplate, i used a belt sander for mine
