I used a flanged bearing on the inside and standard bearing on the outside and some shims

I had a vintage fx10 buggy that the dogbones would constantly pop out. I hated that car until I added heat shrink tubing around the cup and dogbone. Never had an issue after that. This trick might add some extra protection for you while you race . Also keeps dirt from getting in there.

I have a Tamiya Striker (my first r/c car) that's the same as the FX10, so I know exactly what you're talking about ;)

That's a good idea and cheaper then the answer I used! I use telescoping drive shaft instead of CVS. Horizon makes that conversion for the rc10. Very old if you can find them but they work great

try a slice of fuel line tubing inside the dog bone cups to centralize the dog bone.

Try the Horizon telescoping drive shaft conversion! It fixed that problem with the dog bones and I even use the RPM arms with it. The ones that came with tend to drag too low! I don't know if you can find one of those conversions nowadays but I did. I still have one in the original bag from 30 years ago. It runs pretty smooth it eliminates that problem and it does not wear out the outdrives either. I've got titanium ones and it just goes right in with a screw..

Well I already have the Kyosho mod in there and it works perfectly fine. No need for me to hunt down unicorn teeth for this.

I used the B44 centre drive shaft on my worlds re release, they are a couple of mm longer and work a treat
@doctormosfet7 жыл бұрын
Yes, on the "standard" RC10, that is the correct dogbone to use. The general assumption with this RPM conversion is that you use the same exact dogbone length, since I have no record of RPM recommending anything different. However, the arm length and placement doesn't permit that much droop with those dogbone lengths, so you have to use something larger here if you want more rear travel.

So thats the B44 centre drive shaft as a pair, The B4 axles and the GT hubs! Is that all I need? (Its on an original Gold Pan)

Cut a few small antenna rubber ends. & They will no longer have this issue popping out your diffs carriers and bones while still having play, id go smaller and do both there carriers and you will be able to still keep your current assembly and components. happy laps friends. :) or you can ask some other retros older enthusiasts on what bones your might be using being how older your EE is lol mine been old. simple and great Advice man. thanx

Great info!! I have always had the same problem with my cars. It's a shame that AE did make their CV bones just a couple mm's longer. BTW - congrat's on the new family addition. Did you sell your Nix91?

Yes, but they also made a long arm kit for the aluminum tub chassis. That's what this buggy has.

Im digging this option but will it work on stock arms. And what brand rim and tires do you use
@doctormosfet6 жыл бұрын
The stock arms are shorter and so this will not work with them. This particular setup was not designed to switch to modern hex rims, but instead to keep the older dished rims while allowing me to run more rear droop without the dogbones popping out.
