Team Associated CR12 Truck Build

thanks, let me research on the replacement and see. $49 for the set of shocks is like half the cost of my truck ... LOL -

when yours leak, do you just refill them? or it needs to rebuild and replace the o-ring? -

yeah, AE got metal shocks. but i think the caps are still plastic. for the price, I was hope I can get some full metal shocks from aftermarket if they can be sourced. The front are leaking. I supposed I can try to replace the o-ring. but the full plastic shocks just doesn't inspire confidence on their longevity. -

maybe MT12 parts/shocks works on CR12 too? -

Got a CR12 myself. Fun little truck. I drive it as a crawler / trail truck and kept everything stock. But I ended up blowing the front plastic shocks. Instead of rebuilding, looking to replace them, maybe with metal shocks. any suggestions? -
I just got the Optima Mid kit. I am thinking about getting a set of turn buckles. I wonder what other option parts are good to have?

47381 Super Astute (due December)
stockae92 replied to tamiya_star's topic in Re-Release Discussions
Glad I saw this now. I have to save my "quota" for the Super Astute. -
I enjoy building my TD2 a lot. If I don't already have TD2, I would jump on the deal.
-
I have both. Kinda of. I road my TT02 on road and the Fazer MkII (Rage 2.0) as a beater. I have yet broke something on the TT02, but the Rage was TOUGH. I broke a front up right, stripped a hex hub, cracked the front suspension support (crap, forgot what it called). But the car took TONS of ABUSE, including just hand it to a bunch of 8 year old kids with no supervision, and all they want to see is how it crash. I found that I enjoy building / rebuilding the Fazer more. The thing I wished is Rage 2.0 is RTR , I would love if Kyosho release it as a kit.

stockae92 replied to Twinfan's topic in Re-Release Discussions
What are some good hop for Top Force re-re? I don't think it comes with bearing, so that would be a must have. I am thinking aftermarket turnbuckles. the car is not for racing, just general driving around. and will be running brushed motor with NiMH. -
Great thread. I will work on mine some day is there a list of what bearing to get to complete the build? I am going to look into order the front suspension metal part as well.
