Hahaha I should really wait for replies before I order stuff.

Meh Ill throw it up on Ebay.
the alloy damper sleeve might fit the pink 3 racing damper parts so it might not be a complete loss
yeah forgot that you can just get a longer end, but I'd still see if I could build a set of shocks from both sets
I have a fair few parts from Losi and Associated so hopefully I can cobble something together.

I have also been reading about how the chassis plastic is quite stiff and leads to stripped heads.

I have some silicon spray lubricant and was going to spray that in before trying to screw the bolts in, unfortunately I have no way of tapping the screw holes.
use the screws then but turn them slowly so that the plastic doesn't heat up
Hey guys me again lol, Iv got major chatter in the rear when the rims are on! but when Iv taken them off it sweet as????? Iv tried other rims would this be because the rims are out of balance? also I have stirrped the front centre pulley and its damaged the centre belt aswell "few teeth missing" I think I may have done this because by tightening the rear rims on to tight???? cheers

For the money it's worth grabbing one of these Handle and this also M3 0.5 Tpi Tap
Just make sure you grab M3 x 0.5 Tpi(pitch) taps. This will do the job for plastic but i wouldn't recommend it for harder materials.

fits into the gearcase but pulley is 2mm offset so i moved the drive pulley over

but once back together, adjacent belt touches diff casing Sad
but it wouldn't matter as he'll only be using the front belt?
At 2mm tizer should be able to get away with it. The zero fow in my d3 needed to be spaced out to be dead centre to the 13t pulley anyways. Hopefully this means he can run a ball diff.
