Does anyone have a solution for TT02 metal diff gears? I have the GPM set but they don’t fit in the oil filled style diff case. Plus there’s a difference in 3 spider gears verses 4 stock. Thanks

Started assembling a Bear Foot Clod Buster in white/red instead of the traditional blue. It’s a mild modded build. But still stompy fun!

Yesterday I ran Clods with this guy…. I like to call him Captain Beer!
Prior I purchased the same graphics from MCI graphics twice and was left with a negative experience. I’ll probably choose a reputable graphics company for my future purchases.

I win! I found one on eBay.
It’s an Exceed RC 1/8 crawler.
Doh!

Mystery 1/8 scale crawler - can you identify it?

With 4 wheel steering you shouldn’t need to remove the limiters. Full lock to lock steering will turn surprisingly better than expected. I hope I helped. Thanks

You might also check these steering limiters on your axles. See attached picture. Stock tires/rims should not hit the suspension if these limiters are in place.

I made a teeter-totter for my tongue depressor crawler track. It’s super difficult to actually balance on it. Fun stuff

It’s funny the timing of this topic as I’m restoring 2 Clod-A-Leaver trucks right now.

Anyone ever remove/strip the chrome off a Pumpkin body? If so how did you do it?
How clean is the body afterwards?
My thoughts on these questions are the OG pumpkin bodies were made in white plastic. I’d like to have one in white without paying the ridiculous price online for one. So the obvious answer would be to strip the chrome off one. Thoughts?
Thanks

Found these silly knockoffs online, thought you guys would enjoy the giggle….
Today I've been struggling with the fancy TT02B that comes with all the blue aluminum “hopups”. The Tamiya brand spur gear propeller shaft included is actually bent straight out of the box. So now I’ve gotta wait for replacements to arrive…. 🫤

Hello, is there a list of Tamiya brushed motors showing weakest to most powerful that someone could share? Thanks
It would be nice to know motor output/RPM’s etc to better match motors to specific kits.
-
I've gotta install the electrics and adjust a couple things. But it's pretty much done. It’s box stock plus bearings.
Not my favorite build!-

Yesterday the group of us were making top speed runs. We went 120mph with a Limitless, and an assortment of slower speeds with other cars. More to come!

Originally I had planned to put the typical race car sponsors graphics on this one. But I kind of like the plain look.

I use these on a variety of Tamiya’s, you can buy them from various places and offsets.

That looks fantastic! Well done sir.
For me, the SBR2 is one of the most fun RC's I have ever driven. ... nearly 150 packs on mine so it is driven a lot.
Anyway, I really like your MD livery.
Thanks
I did the shock oil and rear mounting position mods as shown everywhere on YouTube. Then I added my own “Tamiya” chassis stiffeners, and a lime green duel motor cooling fan.
