Default Bones

Thanks. I think I'll wait until they come out. Just to be sure 46mm for the old school suspension and 48 for the new. I think the TB02/04 conversion comes with 42mm?

It says that you actually need the 50mm universals for the LW Suspension...

Here's the quote..

53847 TA05 46mm Assembly Universal Shaft (2 Pcs.)
Packaging the popular assembly universal shaft with the perfect combination of parts for use with the TA05 chassis.
Compatible Chassis: TA05, TRF415 (excluding MS).
Must use F201 50mm long swing shaft to use with reversible suspension.
Set includes:

- 46mm Assembly universal swing shaft (steel) x 2
- Cross spider x 2
- Wheel axle x 2
- 2x9.8mm Needle roller pin x 2
- Hexagonal wrench (small) x 2

The shock towers and universals will be released the 16th of July, I believe, as well as the High-Precision Diff.

It does but the instructions say that for the TB02 46mm shafts should be used. So really it is pointless buying the TB02/TA04 LW suspension kit for a TB02 when what you really need is the TRF415 LW suspension kit!

Come on Tamiya let's have a little more joined up thinking here.

"Patience, my young pallewat !"

The label on my box says "Made in Japan", Those bound for the US should be the same or "Made in Phillipines". Either way, both countries are nearer to where I am then to you in the USA.

Likewise, I got my Losi JRXS (American product) a full 2 months after it hit the LHS in the US.

To tell the truth, Even the Tamiya Distributor here do not have the stocks yet, I believe I got a "JDM" product !
Dun think it is officially launched yet anywhere in the world other than in Japan.

If you really, really can't wait, then find out if you've any pals attending the Reedy Asia race in HK and ask them nicely to bring one back for you !
