hey guys, I just got a Raco Super Modified from my uncle that looks just like a jac rabbit. I need new tires and a bulb for the Zenoah 23cc engine and i cant find them. Can anyone help?

For original tires check ebay or your LHS for aftermarket ones. By "bulb" do you mean the primer bulb on the carb?

Jacrabbitman

Yeah when i went to prime it the bulb just desinagrated

Ive got pics but im not sure how to post em. Its got a custom Bud light paint job

Your best bet would to be just upgrade the whole carb itself, Very difficult to get just the bulb. Pick up a Walbro carb or something simular. They work great. I have an extra one here I think.

Jacrabbitman

How much would that cost plus the tires. I Have to get a new battery also and a digital Radio.

Jacrabbitman

Where can i find one? and also are the shocks oil? and are ther any monster truck shocks etc that would work? Its a beaut check out my pics to see it

Nice buggy there, ever think of selling it let me know

Carb around $20-35
Tires $30-$50

The shocks are oil filled. I don't know of any monster truck shocks that bolt right up. But I imagine there are some somewheres. Get some used Savage ones or something the same size.

Jacrabbitman

So which tires do i buy? Is there any tires that will fit on the rims directly? I am just driving this thing in parking lots. Thers to much to lose in it

Call larry at www.quarterscalemtrsports.com they are not listed on the site but he has parts.

Jacrabbitman

I emailed him and then i found this. He hasent emailed me back but he gave me the number so im going to hit him up

quarterscalelegends

You need to call him! Email gets slow results. Usually weekends are good to call or evenings around 5pm west coast. I just saw these, keep an eye on them. [link=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34063&item=5981179976&rd=1]link to auction[/link]

I recently inherited a raco jr and found this thread, this is great. My car needs some work before it will run, I think my servos are fried and I might need a new radio. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hey Paulie, still have the worlds most powefull jackrabbitt?
You should re-post your Pics here so folks can see what a old school large scale can be, its amazing..
This is what got me into the big stuff.
I found,bought ,built up, and sold my Raco Grand National and I regret it still. But I love my Buggy and will never sell it.
Im building a Boat powered by a 25cc Homelite motor. Should get me through the winter building on that..

pb_paulie_b

i still have it. a couple of months ago i bought a race piston and a boost bottle from daves motors. i think there is a such thing as too much power. it's hard to control. anyways i'll throw some current pix up soon...PB

rcproam

Can you recommend a certain servo or radio... I'm new to the hobby so I don't know a whole lot.

pb_paulie_b

i would recommend tower ts-80's and any fm radio. i like jr but only because i've been using them for years. welcome to rc. jacrabbits are alot of fun and different than anything else out there... heres some pix for you teamcrome and everyone else who wants to see a 15 year old buggy still rip'in it up...PB

Hi,
I'm looking for JackRabbit parts, and and all. I really need a mod pipe, shocks and I'd love to get a set of aluminum trailing arms. Need rear tires/wheels to.

Any help would be great...

Hey I have a Jackrabbit that a guy at work gave me .... I gave it to my 9 year old. We are trying to get it going, The radio is shot so I bought him a new one for Christmas. It runs great. The roll bars are broken Is there any where to buya new cage? The front bumper is missing. I figured I would have to build something for that .... What is the satus and history with Raco Jack rabbits? It looks to bve a quality unit ..... I heard the company that made them was out of business.... Any Advice would be helpful Thanx . Dan

jimbo1890

check out quarterscalelegends.com he has a wealth of info you may be interested in.

pb_paulie_b

Welcome to jacrabbits! New cages are rare. Keep an eye on ebay. Where is your broken at? A man named Wolfgang bought all the last rabbit parts. He still has some available at www.raco.co.at . One of the cool things about jacrabbits are their big and strong with a simplistic design. This means your local hardware store and some clever thinkin can fix just about anything with it. Let me know if you need any help in particular...PB

Here is an update on the Jack Rabbit project. I installed the new radio / receiver and the stearing still did not work. I found out I had one bad servo. It was set up for two with a y-cable. I am going to try it with just one. I just fabricated a horn but don't have it working yet.


Will it work?
