Hi all,
the other day a mate gave me a Thunder Tiger Nitro 4WD 1/10 kit (see attached pics) from a magazine series he bought about 12 years back here in Australia. He hadn't started building it and every part is present, other than the parts that would have come with magazine 13 - the rear left driveshaft and ball connector.
I'm assuming they will be identical or very similar to the parts for the right rear driveshaft (DS length may vary I suppose), which I have (see pics). If I can't locate them, perhaps I can have them fabricated somehow???
I have contacted Thunder Tiger in Taiwan in the hope that they will be able to supply the missing parts. If this doesn't eventuate, my quest will be to find a way to either locate existing parts or establish a means to having them made somehow (assuming it's worth it financially).
I'm assuming Thunder Tiger won't have them any more, so if anyone can offer any advice on the following options I will be extremely grateful:
Cheers from Sydney, Aust,
Dave

I'm assuming Thunder Tiger won't have them any more, so if anyone can offer any advice on the following options I will be extremely grateful:
- try to locate the part on various forums,
- try to find someone to machine the matching part(s),
- just build it and forget about driving it,
- part company with the project all together (that would be unfortunate).
Cheers from Sydney, Aust,
