Tamiya needs to bring back some more of those pack-in bead lock style tires.

Those are on the bruiser too and they work great. Plus, you can replace tires without buying new wheels everytime.

Lunchboxer

Yeah, they work great esp. for non-racing application.. it adds some unspung weight / rotational mass, but not critical for most people anyway..

I agree 100%

Lunchboxer

Your WW-1 has those nice 3-pieces wheel too.. and a giant bearing up front.. LOL!!

LB, how many TEU-101 esc's do you have? ALOT

Lunchboxer

Hmm.. just those that came w/ the kit...

LB x 2
Hornet x 1
T-Egg x 1

I think that's it........ ha!

rc monkey

Ok lol, I thought it would be alot more

Lunchboxer

LOL, I also got a Futaba MC230CR, a MC330CR, a LRP AI Runner Plus, 2 LRP AI Digital, and my BL setups... (I think that's all... ha!)

Will have another TEU-101 when I get a Suzuki Swift.. ha!

rc monkey

"no more"????

Lunchboxer

We will see... "no more" is a relative word... hee hee..

aer-wubby

Heh.. Alls I gotta say is good luck and be careful with all those LRP AI's [sm=what_smile.gif].

Lunchboxer

No problem so far w/ any of my LRP products...

aer-wubby

The odd's get greater the more you buy them lol. Personally, even if I head more than 2 cases of AI's failing I wouldn't get one. But I experienced it before.. Twice [X(].

Lunchboxer

And maybe I am just lucky..

Or I just use it properly.. hee hee..

rcluke

man, i cant stand those bloody tamiya ESC's they annoy me so much to set up, i'd much rather spend the extra money and get a mtroniks

Lunchboxer

Tamiya TEU-101 is a pretty good ESC.. it is rated up to 60A, I think.. so the 27T rating is WAY underrated...

rcluke

it's rated to use ANY tamiya motor isnt it?

dont get me wrong, it's a good ESC when it's set up, but setting it up just annoys me so mmuch lol

Lunchboxer

No.. Tamiya makes very low turn motors too.. they have higher end ESC for those...

Dude, setup is a one time deal.. LOL!! Don't be lazy.. ha!

Lunchboxer

Exactly the same shocks from 20+ yrs ago...

Old school!!

Lunchboxer

But of course, the basic's still the same.. put the oil in and pump it a few times and let it sit for awhile to get the bubble out of the oil...

[]TEX[]

Ha, I actually remember those...

I found that the dtx car stand is a great shock holder, has four holes for four shocks

[]TEX[]

Hey, I bet those shocks would work on the High lift

Lunchboxer

This is the tool to push the sealing piston into the cylinder..

Instead of using the newer rubber seal, this uses a rubber sealed metal piston with a screw hole in the middle.. pushes it in, let the oil out a little bit, clean that off, put the screw on, then put a spring on the other end.. close the cap..

Yes, newer shocks are easier to build..
