CVA options

[Jimbo302]

I have been looking into available options for CVA's for my RC10T. I would like to run newer wheels on this one. If anyone has any opinions or suggestions, I would be interested in hearing them, thanks.

I would love to know the same thing. I been looking for this answer myself from what I found is you use the axle setup from the rc10gt? I thought they use the same wheel style but I remember reading a post on using those. Obv I'm not certain or I would have done it. Hopefully someone chimes in

There are two rear axle styles- the 1/4" for the bushing rigs (and the original team truck) and the 3/16 axles used in the team trucks up thru the T2. The 3/16 is what you want for running more modern style wheels. Im not sure how far in the timeline this takes you as I only own T2 era and older. All you need to do is buy the proper bearings and wheels to match.

Both are discontinued but worth searching for

MIP 1082 3/16 CVD set
MIP 1008 1/4" CVD set

Associated 7383 3/16 CVD kit (same as MIP 1082)

Hi,

T3's also used the same length CVD's.

Cheers, Dave.

I assume you can use mip1082 with 7367 rear hub and bearings for an rc10gt and for the front use the worlds car conversion 6801?

[GoMachV]

Yes with the rear you would use 3/16 x 3/8 bearings with no flange.

Not sure how the extended front axles would work with offsets and such, I'll let others answer that

[Shiesty2000]

Oh I didn't wasn't aware they were extended axles

[GoMachV]

Yeah that's what the update does, makes the newer offset wheels work (for a buggy) just not sure about truck offsets

[bully]

From memory just the standard inline aluminium axles are the go.. I use the T4/GT2 wheels front an rear

Been trying to follow this thread. Like the OP I am dusting off my old RC10T and want to install CVD's. 1/4" and 3/16" units are no longer available. I see that Associated now sells CVD setups for the Re-re Classic and Worlds Car. Would either of those kits work buy replacing the driveshaft with a T3 drive shaft? If not, what other options do I have?

I installed SC10 associated CVD's in my RC10T. They were recommended to me by the service rep at associated being I couldn't find the MIP CVD's mentioned above anywhere. They have been helpful to me over there at Associated. Worth giving a call if you have any questions.

Wow thanks for the suggestion. Were they a direct fit?

[Charlesmtb]

Not exactly. I had to get rear hubs that took 3/16 bearings. I will look for the purchase order and get back to you. I also added the hex conversion to run modern wheels.

Upon looking a little deeper the SC10 and T4 share the same part number for the CVD kit. It's already been established that the T4's are about 1/8" too long.

iirc T3 was a CVD. the worlds car runs Associated CVA. the cup sustym wher the universal section is is reveresd
