thanks, so far I have come across the need for front lower a-arms both sides, 1 front carrier, front shock(original, monster beetle one on there now), want to replace the small bushings in the difs with bearings, need to size them up and find them. owners manual doesn't give the size. the msc needs a cleanin' and some new wiring. other then that the rest seems to be in decent shape.

ill get some pics posted tommorow of the parts i have u can let me know if they look like they will work ur tranny cases look a little diffrent but the hubs look close

hutch247

cool thanks, not to sure which one the sport shot is but I'll browse ebay fer a bit see what I can find.... guy had a set a bearings, but it was from across the pond and going for something like $50 after shipping.... all the bearings in the shot are 5x11 except 4 smaller ones in the tranny's.

sport shot is the fully hoped up version of the hot shot

kinda like the xb tamiyas now

discgolfer72

well after 1 hour of sorting and building i have this built so far
i can complete bolth the buggys and still have left over parts


these r just trial fits to find out what i needed if anything (looks like all i need is a few tranny parts for one of them ) i still have to go thru all the stuff and clean and figure out how to remove the crappy paint from the plastic parts or at least repaint so that all the parts match

discgolfer72

well working on the modfied body i need to trim the top peice and repaint the body but i think its starting to look good i really need a diffrebt inner body but this should work till i find somthing

discgolfer72

hutch247 here r thos pics of the sport shot parts i have

also been cleaning my work shop and sorting all my parts man i still have a ton of work to do but here is the start of my mass spare parts bin

discgolfer72

sweeeettt mid engine conversion is working great still gotta figure witch side i need the motor mount on (to get the axles to turn the right way ) then its time to mill the chassis

any rc10 lovers out there this is verry simple to do all u need one whole car and an extra chassis
if u would like info on how just ask

discgolfer72

man im really chugging along got the motor setup right trimmed the chassis hopefully by tommorow night ill be finished with the chassis(gotta mil try and build a top plate and install a new style chassis brace) then its on to the body

hutch247

thanks for taking the time to post the pics. these are the broken parts i'm lookin' for. along with the 8mm ball connectors, the metal ball plates, and the plastic discs. your a-arms are aftermarket? and the carrier is not the same..... I appreciate the offer and effort but I am looking to use same as original parts. hopefully I can find a good deal on ebay for a parts lot with the stuff I need.

thanks again

ford f150

ive rebilt one before and there pretty solid cars

discgolfer72

added a few last miniut touches to the prototype its really solid now no signs of any chassis flrx and it seems really well balnced esp with the mid motor mount setup i cnat wit to get some elect installed for some test runs once i make shure it runs good i then have to strip the whole thing down sand and then put a finish on the chassis

I think you should swap the front and rear tires over other than that get a body on it + lets see some videos

discgolfer72
