I removed sold items and lowered prices.

I have some Avante and/or Egress spare parts for sale either as a lot or separately. All parts are new. They are… Avante upper carbon deck $21 shipped Pargu Avante aluminum suspension mounts $18 shipped Front & rear universals full set $26 shipped All shipped within the US, outside US please contact. Photos are not loading. If you want photos please ask.

So as i said earlier Tower literally emails me 2-3 times a day. The new tactic is by using my name in the email “ hey Ryan super savings member” but the best is i never renewed from the summer.

I don’t want or need anything but Tower has been emailing me nonstop 2-3 times a day. They must be hurting.

For one I read that xtra speed gear set diff does not fit from a few people on facebook. The evo comes with bearings. That is the wrong high speed gear set with the blue aluminum. That set works with the tt02b. Get yourself an aluminum motor mount, that is priority one.

Lol, i used ts paint by accident on one of my re re optima bodies. It was a metallic orange and yes it starting flaking. I tried to save it by backing it with ps silver but no luck. I painted my cougar yellow and not a fan of how it came out. I bought a new body last summer to paint but no idea what color to do.

Nice cougar paint job. What color is that?

My egress is one of my favorite runners and one I always go to. Handles great, much better than my avante and it is one of the best looking buggies from that era. I would say it handles as well or almost as well as my top force evo that most say is the best handling tamiya from back then. I am so glad i cancelled my td2 preorder years ago but if they ever are super cheap I may buy one. I say get an egress.

Tamiya superstock bz or rz and gear it properly you should like it. You could also get the high speed gear set.

Someone said on a kyosho facebook page that the vendor who made the chain for the kit went under and they were trying to get a new supplier to provide both the chain and belt with the kits.

So I got the new parts for the shocks and rebuilt it with plumbers tape and all good. I am convinced though the cap threads are messed up. I had a hard time screwing it on and lining it up. The other 3 would seal up right away with problems.

It is a nice build, I like the jj more so. I’d rather build a trf lol. I wish I bought some a local shop had near me before covid but I was afraid you’d never get parts if I broke it.

It is amazing I have built 11 tamiyas since 2015 and hop up shocks for most of them such as trf ones and not one has ever leaked.

I totally agree they are, my jj was a perfect easy build minus one issue. This mid was too aside from this shock problem.

Not at all, the gaskets are lined up. I tore it down first just redoing the shafts & o rings and the last 2 times everything was redone. Late this week i will go over it all again.

Yes and when compressed it comes out a decent amount

Someone on facebook told me to use plumber’s tape around the threads. I am goin to try later.

It is just odd because the re re optima red shocks I had the same issue, as did many people. My JJ build shocks are perfect. I just ordered the parts.

I was hoping i had an extra set of that part tree from my re re optima but i rebuilt my gold shocks on the optima last year. So I have to order them. It is really bs because redid that shock 3 times and even used the clear orings which supposedly stops any leaking hahah.

Only issue i had recently was one gold shock leaking until i rebuilt it 3 times and is still leaking.

Rckicks literally brings nothing to the table. He literally just posts clickbait bs or tries to get hits by blabbing about the newest future release. Did I also mention E clips annoy me

I remember tamiya saying the fox would do 30 mph out of the box

Joy!!! Luckily i have a spare set from my optima. I remember people complaining about this issue when it came out.

Moving along with my mid build. I had to toss the yeah racing motor plate. It was not sitting right no matter what I did causing the slipper pad to rub very badly and jamming up the gearbox. Also one of the motor mount slots to connect to the gear box stripped on the first try installing.
