F103GT Pan Car...

Recommended Posts

Hi

I had the idea of modifying my chassis to do something similar...But it's very complicated to find this kind of wheels!

And why not install Pan Car wheels to get 235mm ;) sounds good!!

First, go to the drawing board with AutoCAD to find a solution to get Pan Car wheels integration...

I begin by the rear axis, I would like to make an adapter to easily install a Pan Car rim on a F103 diff from 3 Racing.

I'm now in charge of the front axis...I should be 210mm wide!

-In blue, self locking nut
-In purple, the both flange bearings
-In yellow, the new bushing (8mm) that I should make
-In bues, wheel stub from 3 Racing
-In red, new rim axis (to be made)

Does the wheel on the pan car use a different size axle to a standard tamiya? Hence the flanged bearings on your front wheel design?

For the body, I'll have to fix it, for that, I'll need to replace the existing carbon plate by a new one because it's not wide enough!

First, I had to make a MDF prototype to know where to install the body mounts.

I also made a new front bumper

Hi

Yes, an Pan Car rim needs two flanged bearings, but the boring is same...only the length of axis changes, diameter is same!
