Replacement tires for the 959 rims?
sumo1977 replied to grimlock's topic in Vintage Tamiya Discussion
i looked just about every where for new rally tires and couldn't find any. in the end i got a great set of used tires and rims from a member on here but through ebay (crash-chris) very good ebayer and fast postage. give him a shout and see if he can get some for you. -
will the hi-torque servo saver (51000) fit the avante as the servo saver steps backwards towards the servo (pic below) and get rid of some of the slop from the normal servo saver? thanks.

also got the bits from shapeways for the front and rear suspention. very impressed just need to drill the holes out with a 3.2mm bit and they fit like a dream. if you need non origianal bits these are very good. more soon once the rear gearbox case gets here.
-
right got some more bits today so was able to get the front done. new a parts and b parts fitted
-
that is it for the moment i will post some more (with pics) once other bits come in the post. hope the come soon, i so want this to be done so i can play. thanks everyone more soon.
