Ok I have my .16 in transit. I have a couple extra bucks and wanted to know what parts I SHOULD stock up on. I would hate to break down and not be able to fix it right away. So what do you guys think I should order in? Spur Gears, Shock Towers, A-Arms, Tie-Rods, DogBones? Whatever you guys have broken more often. Thanks, Joe

Also if you could throw me a part number that would be cool.

Update on Buggy status. I ordered two new servo's. 1 Traxxas 2056 Water Proof servo 80oz Torque and 1 Traxxas 2075 Water Proof servo 125oz Torque. I think I'll use the 125oz on the steering and the 80oz on the throttle. Should work out super nice. Plus I ordered another Futaba R153F Receiver and Ofna Fail Safe. Can't go wrong with that. But I still haven't heard back from you guys on what extras I should order to have on hand. Has anyone ordered from Nitrorcx.com lately? Wanted to know if they been shipping the right parts and if it's been in a timly manner.

you should get the main gear and the clutch shoe that goes under the clutch bell.

I want a few "main gears" but nothing is listed as main gear. Only Throttle, Diff and Spur gears. I dont have any parts numbers so I dont know what I need hahahaha Any help guys? Someone here has to own a .16 buggy and bought a few replacement spur gears. What's the part number that I'm looking for?

joeyhatch11

Which one is a "clutch bell"

But then what is this? Hahaha
http://www.nitrorcx.com/51c00-02107.html

God something is not right with that site. Someone please fill me in. I'm missing something here. I'm going to see if it's any different at Exceed-rc.com

chevyderek72

ok the first one is the engagement thing for the 2 speed. the second one is the clutch bell for the two speed. and the third one is the clutch bell you need for the single speed

joeyhatch11

Thanks I figured that. I just can't stand how there web site is set-up. They mislabel alot of there parts and leave no description to what it's for. They shouldn't have parts for the two-speed mixed in with parts for the single speed. I understand they are the same buggy but is it really that hard to make two different pages for parts listings? Hahaha

joeyhatch11

Ok so far this is the list: Clutch Bell, Clutch Shoe, and Main "spur gear" But I also want dogbones for the front/rear. Which ones do I need?

Again this is what I'm talking about. There is no way of knowing what buggy/truck there for or where they go. What a mess someone please help again. Trying to get this order placed by this afternoon. Thanks, Joe Foster

chevyderek72

im pretty sure the part number is 06022 http://www.nitrorcx.com/51c00-06022.html
there is a schematic view on redcats site http://shopping.netsuite.com/c.84985...shockwave.html
they have em for every model, sometimes its nice to see that part and where it goes and what the part number is. hopefully it helps

joeyhatch11

Thanks and nice job on the schematics I'm going to save that one. Well time to place that order.

joeyhatch11

So I got 2 sets of DogBones, 3 Spur Gears, and 1 Clutch Shoe. Anything else to stock up on? Is Exceed-Rc good about getting there orders right? They're not the ones everyone's talking about are they? Mixing up orders and shipping out wrong part numbers?

yadac123

if we shipped wrong parts you can always let me know and I'll fix it.

Andy

joeyhatch11

Thanks Andy, I'll let you know how I make out. But I dont remember if it was Nitrorcx.com or Exceed-rc.com that people were talking about shipping issues. Either case, I know your a huge help on here, so if I have any issues, I'll PM you. Thanks, Joe

chevyderek72

ive made a couple orders with nitro rcx and everytime it was dead on with super fast shipping. then again im one state over haha

joeyhatch11

Any one using a Lipo as a receiver battery? I was going to cut out the switch and have it wired direct. Even with a fail safe, I'm affraid of the switch going bad or turning off by itself and having a run a way. What do you guys think?

joeyhatch11

Anyone know where to get a replacement engine for the .16 buggy?

chevyderek72

here are the stock ones http://www.nitrorcx.com/nitroengines.html

joeyhatch11

Hahaha As many times as I've been on Nitrorcx.com, I never seen that page. Hahaha Thanks for the post. I think it's funny that the motor is half the cost of the whole buggy. To be honest, wouldn't it be better (if you had the money) to just buy another buggy? At least that way you have plenty of spares. I think when it comes to that point that's what I'll do. I'll use the old one for parts and run the new one.

jpilkinton

Yep! That way you will have a spare radio system too.
It's the same way with computer printers. The price of ink cartridges is about half the cost of a brand new printer.

Was getting a parts order together for a new sh .18 engine and I noticed that on the exploded view of the .16 motor there wasn't a "clutch bell" part number 2045. After looking at my .16, I didnt see it either. On the exploded view of the engine, Part # R010 is the "small fly wheel" right after that is the "big fly wheel" then the clutch shoes and main gear. So what's the 2045 for? It looks like it's ment for the 2-speed buggys. Can someone please clear this up for me. Thanks, Joe

joeyhatch11

Never mind I looked at the exploded view of the two speed tranny and there it was. Hahahaha We're good
