Finally got motivated to finish this thing. TA RC10 RS truck. Not a lot of parts available anymore. Turned it into a sand drag rig. Rebuilt the suspension and stuffed a brushless Quicrun in there. Gotta see how this runs.

Look up the parts by part # on the bay. They are there.
They arent getting any cheaper though. That truck wasn't built with hard bashing in mind. The nose of the chassis where the bulkhead mounts is quite fragile- keep in mind.
 
Let 'er rip. That is a SC10 under that body, right? If that's a Team Associated's SC10, then yes, parts are getting harder to find... at a decent price. Tranny parts are still out there so you should be good to go. I'd say the chassis and rear axles that use dog bones are probably of the hardest parts to come by. That RPM bumper/chassis brace is a game changer for sure.
 
This is my factory team sc10. As you can see its in beautiful condition.

I will be converting it to a t4 here in the near future. So the chassis, battery strap, bumpers and body mounts will be up for grabs. This is the carbon chassis.

Ill have no use for the parts 🤷‍♂️

I needed wheels as the original were beat up pretty bad. I ended up using Slash pieces. I had to mill out the center section of the outer hub with an end mill. It needed the clearance for the hex nut. It's been a neat project. Made the brain cells work. Lots of fun though.
