Barnoid 71 Posted November 16, 2019 This evening I have mostly been wondering why the badword anyone would want to assemble a car using red threadlock. Aaargh! Bought this on eBay earlier this year, and I thought it was about time I treated it to some love. Kind of wish I hadn't. :-/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

78Triumph 2551 Posted November 17, 2019 Range Rover classic body kit. Lots of parts and small screws. I built one of those Axial raw builders kit chassis to put it on when it's done. Sorry Tamiya.

Superluminal 1545 Posted November 17, 2019 Is that one of the ebay chinese ones? There seems to be lots of sellers with identical pics so assume the kit is the same one. Really interested in seeing a build of this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to the new addition to your garage and scale course! As you have built the SCX10ii could you help me out?! I'm missing the washer / shims that sits between the bearing and the axle pin at the rear. Could you measure them for me? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderDragonCy 4515 Posted November 17, 2019 Basic setup gauge off ebay for about 4 quid. It is so good! Just using an old shelf as a flat surface. Will make getting my on road cars' setup sorted so much easier. They were all running a bit high and low on camber despite my best efforts with rulers and the angle measurer on my phone. Highly recommended. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used the red Threadlock when making my Topforce, and some seeped down into the rear post where the undertray fixes on. nearly mashed a screw, so left it. Now know what to do.

mtbkym01 2252 Posted November 19, 2019 Got these trial car stands from @yogi-bear , infilled the etching and assembled them (they come in kit form 👍) without an issue, got to stick on the non slip pads and start trying cars on them, but so far these are top notch These will be fine tuned by Yogi, then I believe they will be available for purchase, my issue is I’ll need quite a large number of them 😂😂 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
