So the 503 is about 5mm longer than 502X both in standard form. I'd say the 3.5 toe on the 502X would reduce the wheel base by a couple of mil. However I find the 502X more stable out of corners with the extra toe.

Also a little comparison for those of you that were wondering about the differences between the TRF511 Upgraded chassis and the TRF503 chassis

Little bit of Diff gear prep being done
400~600 grit sand paper to smooth out the back sides of the gears... they were very uneven and rough... and the progress so far

OK... few more updates..
How about a few new front hex options.. 12mm and 10mm 3mm~3.5mm thickness, so using a Kyosho ZX-5 / Losi 22-4 front rim should not be an issue for 12mm front wheels.. also the offset is only 0.5mm wider

How about some other parts that crossover from other Tamiya cars that work with the TRF503
TRF417 Steel light weight outdrives... need two sets to make it work on one diff.. TRF201 Light weight vented slipper plates and TRF 501x Bulk head brace.. TA-06 Front 39T One way.. for you that are brave enough to use them

Just a quick question....why you using the front hole on the alloy hub carrier?

#216

|

Had good luck with that location before on my TRF502x... the car reacted a little bit more to my liking with the shorter link

In respect of the front oneway, is the diff locked when under power? I always ran my Egress, Top Force and Yokomo YZ-10s with the one way, but the one one bearing was not in diff, it was elsewhere in the drive system of the respective buggy. Thus the front diff acted like a diff.
