TMaxxDave Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 Fairly sure that TL01B arms fit straight on along with normal WT01 arms. Gutted about the TG10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 30k Schumacher oil in all my shocks, I don’t really use different weight oil, even though I should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggles Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Going to be building a dual ridge tt02b for my son and fitting a relatively mild 3500kv brushless setup in it... Other than the obvious bearing upgrade is there any parts I should change straight away while building it? I'm happy to swap things as they break really but I'd anything is 100% going to break I'll swap it from the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Bearings and shock towers IMO. I found my shock towers to be very flimsy and bendy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what terrain your running on and how you want the car to handle with either fast or slow rebound and also which springs your using. Suspension oil is a whole tuning art IMO. For daily bashing on standard springs and shocks built following the instruction manual then the normal oil is fine. Because the size and amount of holes in the top of piston also makes a difference to how the car handles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A channel through time and space, where you can insta-travel to wherever the exit may be. In this context however, they are axles that allow the driveshafts and diff housing to be raised higher, giving more ground clearance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
