Popular Post steephill Posted September 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2023 Lcg gearbox for one of my lcg crawlers. I'm impressed with quality and finish so far. The skid feels super slippy like delrin. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kpowell911 Posted September 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 28, 2023 (edited) Not really the postie but story time. As most of us know, Tamiya seems to tug at our nostalgic side. So I decided to apply that logic to buying a model, being as this is Tamiya's nostalgic release. These days, I (and others Im guessing) are guilty of just ordering things online, paying with Apple Pay/Paypal/Credit Card and it turning up a few days later. I decided to do this differently. I couldve got this sooner with "online" methods, but I went to my local modelshop, and ordered the BBX from them. I put the actual cash away in an envolope and waiting for a call to say it was here..... Today was that day.

Kpowell911 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 So, I decided the rear of the BBX needed a spare wheel. Tony @ TTP Is only a few miles away from me so I messaged him and popped round. An absolutely great guy, showed me a fair things and left me drooling over some of his old school stuff. I picked up what I needed, and some parts Id ordered and not yet shipped : Rear wheel for the BBX spare and the slipper/gear diff for the BBX. Not looking forward to retro fitting the Slipper/Diff mind 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steephill Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 . I originally ordered one from aliexpress a couple of months ago but royal mail lost it. Had to get paypal involved to get my money back. Got another off ebay and finally got the surpass brushless system for one of my Trx4m's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
