legarto replied to legarto's topic in General discussions
I found those parts and I double-checked the rest. I got them all, thanks! -

This is a bit bigger I hope (still not good). Thanks though, I do think I have them all. -
I pulled a HP Suspension Set off an old HotShot. It seems to be in good shape and complete (I do need to clean it all up). Do any of you eagle eyed Hot Shot fans see any pieces missing (I tried my best to go through the instructions and match the parts). Thanks!

Fox Shock and Wheel/Tire Help Needed
legarto replied to legarto's topic in Vintage Tamiya Discussion
I checked through the Fox manual and I don't see measurements for the stock yellow CVA shocks. I still don't know if the black CVA shocks that I listed in the first post will work on a Fox. Thanks for the help. -

I like the idea of using dye :-). Good idea. -

The rears are the same as the Hotshot. That's good to know, thanks! -
Fox Shock and Wheel/Tire Help Needed

Does anyone know? I don't have the original Fox shocks, only Duratrax golds. Thanks for any help. -
Fox Shock and Wheel/Tire Help Needed

That's one of the reasons I asked: I don't see the Fox on the list. But, I thought it was one of the first if not the first to use CVA shocks. -
I'm working on an old Fox. It seems to have Duratrax golds on it. I want to replace these with Tamiya shocks. I like the black CVA ones in that they are like the original ones, but I just like the black look better. Are these a direct fit for the Fox? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tamiya-50520-RC-CV...#ht_1856wt_1163 I'll need to get two (four shocks) to have one for the front, so I want to make sure. Thanks for the help! Also, a wheel/tire question. From searching I see that Wild one wheels/tires are the same as the Fox (just white instead of Gold). If I get Wild one wheels, are there any re-re tires that fit it OR are there re-re wheels and tires from some of the other models that fit the Fox. I know there are ways to get modern wheel/tire combos on the Fox, but I want the vintage scale look of the smaller tires (not the new 2.2s). Again, thanks for the help.

Thanks - both methods work well :-)

You can search the showrooms using Fox, but not the forums.
-
That would search for Tamiya or Fox which brings up hundreds of threads with Tamiya in them, but nothing on the Fox.
-
How do you all search for the Fox on the forums? It's a three letter word, so the search never picks it up. You can search for the Falcon, HotShot, etc. - but not the Fox :-(.
