I've not tried them tho. Only £10 so might be worth a punt How have they broke?, Just out of interest ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time I see the guy who has it ill have a closer look . Its a friend of a friend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgreenthumb90 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Sweet mate well my arrma parts have shown up going fit them weekend so will post results then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgreenthumb90 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 The parts fit but arnt functional, to make them work you would have to purchase the arma drive shafts and a bigger bearing, gutted though was onto a winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewootts Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 Ah bummer, well if the drive shafts are same length i guess it could still be done? All be it a bit more expensive. I suppose you could always upgrade to the metal hopups if you wanted to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steli Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hello together, my Name ist Steli and i'm from Austria, driving the reely Raptor. ...and destroyed some parts of it too. Last time the gear-box was broken because there is mounted the bumper-base. Why isn't this frame part fixed directly to the chassis? Is there anybody out there who solved this problem? Kind Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomr Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Nice to see the diffs are oil filled from the factory for a change 👍 Refilled them anyway with 40K front, 100k centre and 20k rear . Looking forward to the weekend and hopefully some half decent weather. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
