Question on re-building RC-10

Post by hav3rchuck »

Hi all,

So, I have been asking questions on things for my RC 10 (cadillac). I am replacing a few missing electronics and will be doing a re-build to make sure the shocks are in shape with oil, re-grease the gearbox, and do a general clean up overall.

In reviewing everything before I start my project I noticed that flanged bearings are not so easy to come by in the EU without a lot of extra cost and was wondering if there are things like updating front axles, or things like that I might want to look into? Is this something anyone is doing?

Back in the day I replaced the stock front and rear arms with the longer versions (champion or worlds edition I think...), so it is already not a stock RC10. For me I am just wondering if there are some things like this that make sense to maybe upgrade in the process of the rebuild (keeping in mind parts are not always so easy to get in Germany).

I am excited to get back into the hobby but the older-me is also wanting to not just get all willy-nilly like I did when I was a kid :-)

Thanks!

Maybe check JC Racing.

They sell several different RC10 wheels. I'm sure they have the matching bearings as well.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.
