TOPIC:

Got this with a lot sale of tamiyas (TF evo, a bashed C frame NSX and the rookie rabbit)


loads of thing missing, but just lets see how or if i can get it running.

started the cleaning process




Anybody familiar with these diffs, how to maintainance them?


shocks


to be continued...

Good for you Are you going to keep the OS engine or mod it to electric as H.P Freak suggested? I'll keep an eye out for one of those cages

Thanks, but I think I will try to make a cage out of alloy rod myself, that might be easier and cheaper.
I appear to missing one of the diff outdrive axles (hope I just overlooked or miss laid it somewhere)

The OS is in pieces but have to get the sticky residue (old fuel?) off of it.

Think I will rebuild it as far as original as possible, but think it will be a shelfer not a runner.

.

cleaned the gearboxes, think I removed at least 150gramms of vintage grease.



front nearly done


front and rear on cleaned chassis plate (just a little sanding and polishing)


drivetrain installed


some close-ups






unfortunatly I am missing one of these



and a full set of wheels

next up the OS engine, got to clean it first (somehow)
(already in bits and pieces, hope I can google the manual )

Waterbok,
For your diffs You just have to clean them and put hard silicon grease. For the engine, put it in nitro fuel to remove old grease. The rebuild is very easy.Only 1 place for 1 piece.
Very nice job

That looks very similar to most drives, but only if the dimensions match You could always file the flat part on to some new ones

These could be good

found an add on a local online fleamarket, someone is selling 3 or for of these chyi's.
asked if he will sell me a diff outdrive, and maybe a cage and some wheels.
