Is there a difference in length between the kingpins from a TA-01 vs the kingpins from a TA-02? The reason for me asking is that I have a TA-02 and the kingpins don't sit flat to the tops of the c-hubs, they stick out about 1 to 2mm. I have found conflicting info that the TA-01 and TA-02 kingpins are or are not interchangeable. Any help would be appreciated.

It's been a while since I built a Tamiya "fun" kit. Good thing I just won a NIB Desert Fielder TA02T on eBay. This will be my very first TA build. I'm looking forward to it. I have a few questions: What is the body that comes on this truck? Is it the S-10? Is it the Ford F-150? Or is it something else? I can't tell for certain from the photos. I ordered ball bearings right away. Are there any other upgrades I should start with? I'm going to use this as an on-road truck with maybe some light off-road, rally running. Thank you.

Hi everyone! After a bunch of searching on Google and this forum, I couldn't figure out what kind of pinion/spur should I order for my soon to be TA02? I'm looking for a 25T/66T combo for a high powered b/l motor. I know Robinson Racing makes every imaginable pinion in steel, which is what I need, but I'm not sure about the pitch/bore I need. Some places say the pinion has to be 0.4 metric, some say 48p, and others just state I need to match it to the spur. What is correct? Some introduction since this is my 1st post here: I've been into cars since I was born, and a couple of months before getting my license I worked at an amateur toy/hobby store. We had some interesting 1/10 RTR and kits that we almost never sold, and some beaten up dummy TT01 to exhibit. One day I decided to ask the owner to have myself a kit and he agreed to sell it to me at what it cost him. A few months later, I had 3 shells(LaFerrari, Z4M Racing, 997 GT3 Cup), a brushless 8.5T motor running on the lowest gearing possible on a TT-01, and lots of TT-01E and aftermarket alu hop ups too. And then I sold it. Now, a couple of years later, having my own car and missing the whole building/driving a 1/10th scale RC car, I started searching and figured the best choice for me would be the 993 GT2 "TA02SW" by Tamiya. Now after getting some parts, although not the kit itself, I wanted to figure out what spur/pinion ratio I'm going to run. My current goal is either 4.5T or 3.5T motor, with 25/66 gearing.
