For the rear, the rear wheel and tire combo from any Kyosho Circuit 1000 buggy will work.

Hi can you tell me what bearing seize you ordered for the Samurai ??????? Please.

I need to get a full set of bearings and my bushes are worn badly to measure up.

Much appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks.

P.S i just ordered a set of alloy wheels from Pargu 2000.

My Samurai is a runner too.

Awesome info on the bearings Fristajlo Thanx!!!

Mad Racer....could you please post your impressions, and feedback regarding those alloy rims from pargu2000? I've been himm-hawing about dropping the clams for these rims. Do you have tires to fit? If not stock tires, do you know what other tires will fit these rims?

I have pretty much picked up enough NIP parts to start my resto project on my samurai.

Also...a certain Ebay seller located in Jakarta does not have most of the items he has listed for sale for the samurai. Just a heads up.

Hi.

I will let you know about the alloy wheels when i get them.

I have noticed that Pargu has sold another couple more sets since i bought mine. Im pretty sure he is only doing 10 sets.

As for tires im not sure till i get them but i want good race rubber like Pro line Hole shots. I can cut & Shunt tires so i should think this is the only way.

Im still chasing one gearbox half and bearings for my rebuild.

I just ordered that bearing set from Boca. Great deal!!! $17.00US & free delivery!! Can't beat that!!

I've used Boca bearings in the past, on my B400 Helicopter, so I know they are great bearings.
