Billy01 0 Posted January 27, 2012 I need help, I'm looking for one long joint shaft (Thorp 4509) to complete my rear end. Does anyone know what other vehicles would work other the Blackfoot, Mud Blaster, Frog... I went on Ebay and tried to search and the only thing that came up was the Kyosho Big Brut and Double Dare. Any help please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldSchoolRunner 116 Posted January 28, 2012 You are going to have to be patient! Ebay is your best best. Can be pretty pricy but you never know you might get lucky. I have two sets that I found 6-7 years ago. Now they are getting fewer and fewer. OSR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Billy01 0 Posted January 28, 2012 I understand fully!OSR Also, OldSchoolRunner, I never ended up getting new bearings for the Thorp, I found (1) 1/16 that I was looking for...(from older post). At least on the other side, I put the stock gears in and runs pretty good for now...knowing I have a Thorp "almost" ready to go in....it was just something that I could not afford way back when....
