Greetings everyone,
I'm looking for the blue aluminum shock adjusters and blue aluminum shock retainers, but can't seem to find anyone that has them in stock. Speedtechrc doesn't even have them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I blew out the bearings with motorspray and oiled them when I built the car right before the KO Race. After the first day, I noticed that one of the left rear axle bearings was now a bushing. I really didn't hit anything on that day either
Also, I was told that a lot of the TRF Japan drivers do not blow out the grease in their bearings. They use light bearing oil to "thin down" the grease that's already in there. If I remember correctly, DJ did not blow out his bearings and he never had problems with them.

Actually, we do stock them, they are listed under the shock parts section, however, the blue anodized color ones are currenty out of stock. Our next expected shipment from Tamiya should be in 1-2 weeks. Sorry for the delay
also, shipping from us to norcal is 2 days by UPS ground, and most orders are shipped the same day it is placedSteve Wang

I should be getting the LW suspension soon. What are the bearing sizes?
Lot's to test on carpet soon. 415, versus 415+LT suspension, versus Evo4.

actually, the bumper brace is from Square, and we should have them as early as next week along with a bunch of other square goodies. The aluminum body posts are made by a lot of people (square, speedway pal, tobee craft) you'll just have to measure the length you want and order the right length accordingly.

I donīt want using the old rear aluminium uprights with dremeling the rear arms as the German TRF drivers did as this will weak the arms.
Do I really need using HPI uprights at my Tamyia?
