ostewart Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 VP or Dlux Fabrication do nice titanium links, Dlux will mark as low value if you ask nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daymo Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 I was thinking about using these to replace the uppers as the lowers are already ali http://www.wheelspinmodels.co.uk/i/216536/ Then buy one of these rod end kits to replace the stock ones http://www.rcbitz.com/rc-parts-accessories/axial-racing/wraith-rock-racer/m3-plastic-bent-suspension-rod-ends-with-axial-width-balls-x20-ball-ends-eyelets/ What do you guys think?

ostewart Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 They would work, reason I went with Dlux are they use Revo M4 rod ends, like VP links use, which are stronger and less likely to strip out. Also solid titanium links are a lot stronger than aluminium ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Not meaning to throw another spanner in the works but SSD-RC do very well priced links at RCMart, cheap shipping and value marked down, I recently got steering links for my SCX10 and they're very well made.

Ooo thanks i couldn't find any SSD links when looking a while back, I've had a look on RCMart I've found the lowers do they do uppers that you know of? I have their titanium steering links & they are very good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe fire RCMart an E-Mail and ask them, or have a look and see if Axial do them? RCMart are also good for the VP fans because the shipping from VP directly is a ripoff, no other word for it, you'd need to have a single digit IQ to pay $50 for a small bubble wrap envelope RCMart charges about $4-6 for the same item. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daymo Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 Well I dropped them an email & they where very quick to respond they don't have the uppers In stock So are the traxxas ones M3 size?

daymo Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 These arrived today a new set of brushes for the Tekin 35t HD motor & some traxxas rod ends (5347) to replace the stock axial ones only issue is the use a bigger thread size so might have to either make my own links or drill & tap the stock ones to suit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
