Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / January 2004Bulk Fasteners
We race a bunch of various Team Associated electric vehicles. I try to keep a few of the common parts that we brake on hand. I'm organizing my parts and see that I'm low on fasteners. Like screws in button, cap, flat heads in various sizes...also nuts etc. Is there a source that might have kits for specific vehicles that might be a bulk purchase? I tried finding such a beast on AE's site but they seem to only have individual parts. Hey, I tried this site after RC Car Action's review. I bought the kit for my tmaxx and rc10 gt. I bought two kits of each. I stripped both trucks and replaced all fasters with the new kit. I keep the others for when they shake loose and get lost. I have not stripped one yet. I think that they are really good quality and thought is was a great product. They come in a small container that you can use for other things when your done. They also sell loose "lots" of each faster. I do not work for them or get anything in return, just a happy customer without a stripped screw on my trucks. The site is called www.rcscrewz.com HTH Robert > We race a bunch of various Team Associated electric vehicles. I try to > keep a few of the common parts that we brake on hand.

It's difficult to tell, if I buy a specific vehicle "screw package". like the $18.00 Associated T3 kit, what specifically comes with it? Is it duplicates of the various fasteners used or one each of everything on the truck? I hope this clears it up: When you buy the specific kit, it comes with the L-shaped allen keys needed for each fastener included in the kit. Each kit is basically an exact replacement for each and every fastener that is already used in the car that you have. So, if your T3 kit originally came with, for example, 10 screws and 10 nuts only; then the kit will be those exact 10 screws and 10 nuts made out a stronger material and will only be hex/allen key fasteners. Baisically it is an exact replacement for each fastener that originally came in the kit.

I'll order one. No Problem. I am glad I could help. Good luck. Robert > > I hope this clears it up: > > thanks Robert. I'll order one. > We race a bunch of various Team Associated electric vehicles.

I bought a big kit of stainless steel bolts/nuts for my RC10GT, enough for several vehicles. I needed steel for nitro, but there are aluminum (and titanium) kits available as well for alot cheaper than Associated (or hobby shop) prices. Shop around a bit and see if you can find something nice.  SignatureI think... I think it's in my basement... Let me go upstairs and check. -- Escher > Is there a source that might have kits for specific vehicles that might > be a bulk purchase? http://www.rcscrewz.com/ Rick R. I have found good prices on bulk and hard to find fasteners here. http://www.hexcrews.com/ > We race a bunch of various Team Associated electric vehicles.
