I open a new subjet when i'll begin

New parts (front tire) The rebuild of the chassis he miss me the front arms …. blocked to the Post agent..

This is not the same parts but you can use a news drive shaft with old Gear box joint ….. but not the way around

I think that you search this bearing (internal to the differential: need 1 on the front and 1 on the rear differential) https://www.modellbau-seidel.de/index.php?firma=Tamiya&best=53136 https://tamico.de/navi.php?a=498&lang=eng

I think that it is not the same parts . The original are a larger diameter than the re-release. I can confirme it tonight

Some news of this week-ends Delevery some news parts Rebuild front differential Rebuild rear differential Rear arms Actually result

Me when i was young, the RC dreamer car's was the Porsche 959 1/12. This is the good period of the Dakar. Otherwise, I am waiting additionnal delevery for continue the rebuild of the Boomerang The delevery time are so long during this covid's period I have order some parts in: - US on eBay: fronts arms + antenna (not good … my last order at the US took 2 months to arrived ) - UK on eBay: front tire - Tamico: Parts A (rebuild the differential) + pilot + Rear tire + new rims + paints

Some news I have rebuilt the shock absorber (new piston rod, o-ring, oil and oilseal) Cleaning the differentials I used a brake cleaner for the internals parts Reception some part Comparaison with old and news parts Definitely more efficient

I buy a Tamiya for build a complet Tamiya RC… and i hope that i can install without problem on the car. My expertise with the RC car is too small… with 25 years behind If i have a problem, i could used a TEU-101BK. It is more compact ! The advantage with the TBLE-02S is that you can install a brushless engine (more performant). I discover it when i try to run it Brunshless motor = 3 connections electrics files https://tamico.de/mediafiles/manuals/service/300045057_TBLE-02S.pdf Classic motor = 2 connections electrics files https://tamico.de/mediafiles/manuals/service/300045029_TEU-101BK.pdf Sorry
