MICHAELs TopForce17

Could be wrong but sounds like your turnbuckles need to be adjusted.

Almost all the parts are the same using a,b,c,d,e part trees currently on my 88. Heard axles fit too.

One of the tabs where the screw holds can break but if using the included motor then I wouldn’t change it.

I just finished cleaning and rebuilding my top force. Here are a few recommendations. tamiya item 50529 yeah racing aluminum motor mount yeah racing carbon shock towers (optional) turnbuckles (any brand) hi cap shocks 47358 df03 shocks 53926 ( if can’t get hi caps) steel pinion

Great lookin clod man!

Just a guess rc10 worlds.

one on ebay but super pricey! https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Rare-Tamiya-Newman-Porsche-956-RM-Mk-7-58052-kit-NEWMAN-NIB-NOS/153445886615?hash=item23ba166a97:g:YokAAOSw7WdamGqE

I think i know what your making...watching.

Had a bluebird bms620 and found it to be decent should be ok in a big wig. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/bms-620mg-high-torque-servo-metal-gear-9-1kg-15sec-50g.html?queryID=4eda9ecdacfbfe65aacf324e6d1c6f83&objectID=34959&indexName=hbk_live_magento_en_us_products

Think this is the part its a 3d print from shapeways. https://www.shapeways.com/product/XW9YBXW6C/959-fronthub-ball-cup-8-sprue?optionId=60858932&li=shops

Sounds cool post a picture when it’s done.

had one last year lots of fun but sold it to fund another rc. Anyway I recommend medium hard springs front 54838 and link arm set 54835 both for more adjustability.

My 2020 plans are going very slowly with 3 rebuilds that I hoping to finish by the spring. I am still deciding what motor to get for avante 1988 then need to figure the pinion. Maybe will go technigold or cheaper route of super stock tz or that new reedy radon 19t brushed.

Preordered. Was browsing the tc showrooms and saw a ts with hicaps think the egress version. Would the top force re re hicaps work?

Not liking the konghead? Look for websites that will do easy pay options. I know towerhobbies will split your payment 3x but that’s in usa.
