need help

[bearrickster]

Well guys I am comimg over to the dark side I traded a couple of my beloved Losi's for a couple of RC10's. I am sure everyone saw JK's RC10T in the buy section it just needs a body and decals. well I got a basket case buggy from him also. it has a cut down goldtub. so I dont think it will be stock.

Well I am looking for some good advice? on some upgrades. not looking to spend a mint as it will be a runner. its been twenty years since I even worked on a RC10, I did have a T4 for a little while but I dont think thats counts. I have never restored one. I really like those carbon fiber towers that were for sale cheep not to long ago but I cant find them? need help their.
I am going to power coat the chassis something cool. how well does automotive paint hold up on them??

I can build you a Losi with my eyes closed, I just dont know anything about RC10's its a little imbarsing

were can I down load a manual? I have a worlds manual can I use that are the part numbers pretty much the same like with the Losi's?

It's all very similar, you can use your World's manual (or send it to me for trade on an original manual . There are links all over the place, just type in some key search words.

Glad that you have seen the light and crossed over from the dark side.

I am not convinced I am staying I just need a Losi brake I have them all through Jrx2-XXcr. I just want to try something new. not quite ready to part with the Worlds manual just yet. but thanks for the offer.

Add some of those jelly bean aluminum rims! they fit the 2.2 wheels. Add some bling to it!

After I get out of school and back to work I will they look sweet. I was thinking of slipers, CVD;s what can you do to a gold pan to make it more modern?

[rctenracer]

I have used mip cvd kits for a b3 in my early rc10's . Just need to pick up some 3/16x3/8 flanged bearings for the hub . I have not had any problems and can run 2.2 rims .

[bearrickster]

Did you have to change the carriers?
