Hi folks, just picked up this B3 and I wonder if anyone knows how hard it is to get things like shock shafts ect?
Hoping to run her (indoor only) just not at the expense of not being able to get any spares I might break if I do.
TIA.
6459 & 6460 are plentiful on eBay. The unobtanium versions are on there as well. I'd look for RPM steering blocks and get a few sets of AE ball cups if you're going to run it. I broke a rear suspension mount when I clipped the pipe barrier one time.

It's one of the easiest cars to get parts for. A few clones of the cars were made a notable one was the the thunder tiger BX. Fan RC also makes many replacement parts.
The hardest thing to get for that car right now would be the shock rebuild kit and the diff slipper pad. Those are the only items I know of that are not in current production.
With a craigslist purchase of a 10T I found this site and it has been a great resource. Most parts are readily available but I am curious what must have items I should keep on hand for the future? I would rather stock extras now than deal with the...
I put in a big order for spare parts @ Tower. I know some of you have placed orders elsewhere...maybe directly from AE? Have any of you received any of your parts?

Placed my order directly with AE Sunday night, got shipping info today, parts should arrive tomorrow. My package shipped in 1-4 days as they said.
Is there any parts I should stock up on for my 10t?It has RPM arms front and rear.
I just want to be prepared and not have a ruined day cause of breakage.I obviously cant have every single part on hand but is there anything these trucks are known...

Inner rear suspension mounts
Body posts
Turnbuckles (just buy Lunsford, they won't break or bend)
Ball cups (RPM for play, associated black for performance)
Ball studs
Why the assoc ball cups for performance? Rpm to soft?
Anybody know where can I buy spares for Veco engines? A few bits sometimes come up on eBay but is there a specialist glow engine place somewhere that messes with old engines?

Awesome! They seem to be keeping several old school engine companies alive.
Can we discuss which items wear out fastest on RC10s in general with use. Plus which items seem to last ages? Plus in particular which items in the stealth transmission wear out? Plus how many spares you have for specific items? I have been building...

Thanks guys. I dont have any hinge pins as I thought they would be impossible to break. I'll get some!
Looking at the spare parts listing at racing-cars.com I'm a bit confused. There are several items which seem to be compatible with the cougar/cougar2 but which aren't listed for these and I'm sure the situation is similar for other cars. As an...

The big 6 steering blocks etc in the first part number should be fine on Cougars, actually quite a lot of the big 6 parts can be used on cougars. As for those Rascal part numbers you posted, i'm not too sure. They do look similar, and may work, but...
