New Front Shocks On The Brat Thanks To Evirob
hoppi05 replied to hoppi05's topic in Vintage Tamiya Discussion
I think they were from this user on ebay ebay shocks and the width with is 18mm without is 14mm (i measured these without taking them off so its a pretty good guestimate) and the overall lenght is around 65mm hope that helps -
Heres a few picks of the Brat with my new front shocks which were kindly donated by Evirob Cheers mate.... these are mounted on the team CRP mounts. and i have fully ballraced rebuilt the gear box with new parts all the wheel housing and mounts are brandspankers and i have got to say even with a very old stock 540 motor it goes pretty fast a lot faster than what it did when i was a kid... well heres some pics.

Cheers guys this topic has been so helpfully! hopefully it will help others in the future if they ever want to use larger 200mm bodies Some of this is taken from other posts: - Take a look at this link to the rear axles: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti00...=LXGM26&P=7 Here are the front axles: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti00...=LXGM41&P=7 Here are the Hex's: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti00...=LXGF21&P=7 Can you not just by the larger Hex's seperate?....

Is A Standard Tt01 190mm?.... 2003 Impreza Wrc
hoppi05 replied to hoppi05's topic in General discussions
ummm always wanted a gravedigger body!.......... -
Evening all, i have spent a fair bit of time searching the internet now (ebay,LHS etc) I am wanting larger Hex connections for my TT01 chassis like below these are the standard tamiya ones but when using a 200mm body the wheel base is too short (looks stupid too) I know you can just get 190mm bodies no problem but that doesn't solve the problem can you get extra long hex connections..... Now if so can some one please!... provided me with a link or 2..... When searching here and the web i was getting results from other models/kits that may come with the larger hex connections but i am not sure which and where to get them?..... any help really appreicated....

Hi all, well as above really i am wanting a new bodyset and just need confirmation cheers
