Hello everyone,
I recently happened to acquire a new Kyosho stadium truck (traded my physics textbook for it, which seemed like a good deal at the time) and I've had quite a bit of fun with as I don't race or bash it too hard. I'm really just fascinated by how everything works right now (I've taken the whole thing apart about 3 times since I got it in January).
Anyways, a couple weeks ago I took it out and played with it in a field of dirt in my local park for a couple of hours and afterwards, while cleaning it to put it away for the night, I noticed that one of the dogbones was missing. The next day I took one of the other dogbones (as it uses the same length front and rear) and took it to the LHS but they could not find anything even close to that length (which is 100mm and whose width is 3mm). I would like to ask if anyone could please tell me if there are any vehicles out there that use dogbones that are this length, or perhaps if someone could suggest a way of fabricating my own. I would very much appreciate it if anyone can help me fix this problem.
Thanks,
Tony
