I'm doing a revo bb build and I got my hands on a new era mount but it dint come with any instructions anyone have a webpage for them or maybe a .pdf of the instructions:)
 
Here's their web page, but ATM it says it's down for maintenance.
http://neweramodels.mybigcommerce.com/

There have been a lot of posts lately of people having a hard time getting ahold of them.
I really hope they aren't in bad shape business wise, we have lost too many great aftermarket MFGs lately.
 
I've been trying to get onto there site for a few days. No luck. I tried a google search and they didn't show up. Except for the generic BBB or yellowpage and local business ratings. I used to buy a lot from them years ago as they were only an hour away...though they wouldn't allow pick ups, they got stuff out in the mail fast. It would be a shame if there gone. Last time I was on their site, they didn't have much of anything for sale. Most anything I looked at was unavailable/out of stock etc.

Possibly try Rt 106 Hobby http://www.106racepark.com/index.php who is located about an hour north of where New Era was located.

Last time I was over there @ 1 month ago, I saw some really old New Era TMaxx parts hanging on the wall. Maybe they can give you the scoop if NEw Era is still around or not.
 
I've got it about 98% sorted the only thing I'm not sure is where to mount the supplied throttle return spring

I use hair bands, but you can see a post behind the throttle/brake servo. You slide the closed hoop end of the spring over a screw and screw it into the top of that post. Then put the hook end through the throttle mixer where the linkage goes.
 
thanks for the pics that clears a few things up.
I was putting the finishing touches on last night , I ended up using the stock throttle return spring and screwing that to the roll bar but I was having a hard time getting full throttle it seems the linkage provided with the new era kit isn't very strong and flexs a lot so I was trying everything to get it and that's when it happened......I over tightened the carb arm on the carb and cracked it so now its stuffed.
I emailed amain last night about a replacement because on the exploded view there is no part number for it.
