car body

[nubarjan]

How do I measure my car for the r/c body.

Also can any electric engine work on any car.

I have an old car that I dont know what model it is.

Thanks

MOST electric engines are all the same, however, you have to pay mind to the turn limit on the speed control. Find that out first and then make an informed decision.

With the bodies, most are 200mm, but if you're not sure, take it to the LHS. What kind of car is it?

Actually if it is electric it will most likely be 190mm. Also post pics here I'm sure someone here will recognize it.

thanx for the help. I will take a better pic later on with the real dig cam. This is with the bad one.

By turn limit do you mean handling

I believe the size has to do with the width??

Well, that thing is definitely a buggy and not a touring car. Turn limit is in reference to the motor. There are stock motors, 19t and lower. The lower the number, the more power it produces. Only thing is that you have to make sure your ESC can handle the motor.

my guess is that is made by associated.

Hey by the way it is a touring car.

If I want pvc how do I put them on

You see the thing that the arrow is pointing to what is it called and where can i get it.

WIll any electric chassis fit my car.

I would simply measure front bumper to back. Give room for the turning radius and make sure its got proper clearance for moving parts. Hope this helps- Don't take my word for it, But it is what I did for the first body I got...

Those are drive shafts, if you measure it I prob have one at home I could get to you cheap, or I could send you a buch whatever you would like.

 

[nubarjan]

how much $$$ for one or two

 

[vbgagnon]

$5 shipped should do it, gimme the size you need and I'll hook you up.

 

[nubarjan]

how do I takem out. Also I found out I dont need the shaft just the screw at the end cause I broke of the end of it

How do I put pvc on tires

 

[Candyman]

PVC is easy. Just measure the outer diameter of your wheels including the molded in beads. Then, go to the hardware store and find PVC who's inner diameter is equal to or just slightly smaller than the wheels. Cut rings the same width as the wheels and then just press them on. If the diameter is a touch smaller than the wheels, you should be able to press them on and have them stay without any glue.

The shock towers lead me to believe it was someting other than a touring car. Oh well, if you say it is, then it is. Touring cars (these days) will take a 190mm body.

Dont care about scratches just no craks or such. I want a pics.
