RE: parts
At the top of the page in RED is Tower Hobbies. Click on the name and search. Most of there items are priced fairly. Best deals are on ebay. Most sellers on ebay have high shipping charges. Watch out. With shipping you could spend more than at an online Hobby Store. Join Towers Price club and have no shipping.

RE: parts
My piston sleeve is shot. Does anybody know if you can kind of bore it out yourself? Or at least how to get the piston sleeve out. Mine is jammed in there.

RE: parts
put a zip tie in the port to run it against that should push it out without damage it
some times may need to use heat like a heat gun or a hair dryer.
im with you on hobby stores and stocking stuff ,there is a few a round here
but one stocks well for traxxas while the other one stocks well for rock crawlers
while the other one stocks for on road stuff. CAN BE FRUSTRATING!!!!!
there is a place that has just about everything ,but it is 30 plus miles away.
