yeah the one on redcat racing seems to not fit on the truck.. idk what to do now

autoart4you

yes, i am very mechanically incline! the pull start will not fit! the one way is about 10mm out side dimater and the cut out for the one way in the pull start is about 8mm

the 10mm & 8mm size is just a guess i did not pull out the micrometer

racemaxx24

I didn't mean to insult anyone. I apoligize.

autoart4you

lol, it's ok man! no need to apoligize! you had no way to know if i was mechanically incline or not and with most people in this world having no mechanical skills you had a good point in your post so thanks for try~n to help!

Still cant find a pullstart for the volcano sv.. ughhh and the ones on redcatracing.com are the ones that are like small.. someone help? plz..

racemaxx24

Alot of stuff from HPI is usable on redcats. Maybe the pullstart for there .15 or .18 might work. Heres a link-http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXGEG6&P=OW. Im not sure but its worth a try.

racemaxx24

Try this-http://www.johns*********.com/store-products-1618Pullstart-Pullstart-Mechanism_26308874.html. Is this the same one u got?

perhamrocks

what can i use as a substitute for differential fluid? I have some multi purpose lithium grease, will that work? And i thought i heard somewhere that auto trannsmission fluid would work is this true?
Thanks for your help

racemaxx24

U would be better with grease. I would think auto trans fluid would be to thin. There not sealed .

V-dog

Overdrive, thanks for all the advice but i still cant find one thats "stock". the stock is like all black.. and im a noob to building and idk which one will go 100% for sure with the volcano sv (stock)

Wait for ehroof to reply. He hows more about Redcats than I don.

ehroof

i cant believe no one from redcat can answer this guy!!!

Ok, the engine's backplate was changed a few months ago to a smaller bolt pattern, you need to measure the distance between the botls on the old pullstart and get the right one, there is a 1" and a 1 1/4 inch pattern.

Oh and btw idk why redcat hasnt responded, ive sent them a couple emails over the last 2 months, nothin... yeah i havent taken my volcano out for atleast 4 months...

ehroof

i am glad i was able to help you out, good luck bro

one more question, i seemed to have lost one of my dog bone axel things which was 88mm , redcatracing.com offers 87mm but there out of stock(forever i think) and i was wondering if the 90mm dog bones would fit?

racemaxx24

I tryed but I don't have a Redcat. And idk about 90mm fitting in a 88mm gap but again let ehroof answer that.

ehroof

it should, there is alot of play usually with the dobones, enough to put slivers of fuel tuning in the drive cups, i dont think 2mm would be too big but i am not 100% sure.

perhamrocks

Ya i use the 90mm dogbones in my volcano

V-dog

tyvm guys i ordered the pullstart and dog bones

racemaxx24
