lunsfrord makes titanium tie rods in just about every size. Mesure the length of the tie rods and you will be able to find them almost anywhere most mail oreder places will have them. I don't no what car your talking about sio i can't help you with the speed control.

Try custom fabrication for parts that you cannot find, because The old RC10 parts are becomming scarse and I am sure the only place you might be able to find parts is on ebay or at a hobby shop. Goodluck

Parts specific to that car will be VERY hard to find, but the turnbuckles & ESC should be cake. Buy some Lunsford titanium turnbuckles and they'll never wear out. Chances are you'll probably need some pivot balls (Robinson Racing ones are aiight) and ball cups (RPM ones will work well), because the plastic thingies probably worked some other way. About the speed control, just rip that old P.O.S. Mechanical (Resistor) Speed control out and put in a decent Novak ESC. It will hook up to the battery, reciever, and motor, so you don't need anything from the old MSC. Good luck with your return to R/C; it sure is fun, isn't it? http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

I just got back into RC'ing after 10 years. I just ordered an T3 and cant wait to get to work! My question is, I started 10 years ago with a Royal Ripper 4WD. Its sitting at home and I'd like to fix it up as a second car to goof with, but don't know what to do about ordering spare parts. Anyone have any ideas? Specifically, I'm trying to get an ESC in place but it's built for a resistor plate. What can I do to fit it in? (I've been driving it OK with the plate, but every once in a while it gets stuck. I think an ESC will get rid of that problem.) Where can I get upgraded tie rods? I cracked a few (they're plastic of course) and only had four spares lying around. Any help is appreciated.
