ASF72 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 It's not really been used since I built it, still sat in my garage on the starter box, new engine has not seen that much work other than sat on tick over to run in a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djr2096 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 They're not D8T ones are they? Nope, but I just been reading on Amainhobbies that the ones I have are for the D8 & do not fit the Hara D8!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djr2096 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Hey guys, have look at this http://www3.ansmann.de/cms/en/bitty-design.html Bottom of the page is a D8 shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJ Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Well my King Headz parts arrived today, very nice quality parts. Also I've bought a HB D8 Hara ED roller (new) which I'm going to rape of the upgrades like the aluminium knuckles, rear hubs, shock mounts, diff rings etc. I might sell what's left or I might stick an RCM conversion kit in it at a later date?? I have also now got a set of Mugen MBX5T extended hexes which do fit the D8/D8T so if anybody wants to widen their buggy/truggy then let it be known they fit. Just place another order, this time with A Main Hobbies and ordered the following:Tekno RC Steering BraceTekno RC Stub Axles w/ Pin Retainers (2) x2Tekno RC Pin Retainer Set (2)Tekno RC V4 Front/Centre CV Driveshaft x2Tekno RC V4 Rear/Centre CV DriveshaftLunsford Racing Titanium Lower Shock Mount Screws (4) So I'm still waiting on the M2C Racing order, should be here soon and do have some parts left to order when funds allow like the Tekno RC V4 Conversion and a 1550kv Tekin T8 but I'm getting there slowly.

JayJ Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Well my M2C Racing order finally arrived today, looking very nice. Anybody know of any aluminium diff cases that fits the D8/D8T, I found this on A Main Hobbies but the price puts me off. I don't mind spending my hard earned but three of those will put me weeks or even months behind with this project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 your d8 will be unbreakable by the time you have finnished it! if it does i would hate to see the bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJ Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I hope so too, spent allot of time and money on this project. Hopefully it'll hold up to a good bashing, only time will tell but I have to finish it first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmytheone Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I looked at them fioroni ones for my RC8T, but there too expensive... I found THESE but not sure they will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexpollard Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I'd love a D8T. Any idea where I could get one without the massive pricetag? Anyone selling a roller second hand? I would do a brushless conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
