My works 91 manual that came with the car originally arrived today and as I've been finding out yokomo had 2 issues of the instructions. One came with the 91 and then the variant that came with the late 91 and the 92.
This is the later version as it has the 92 front and rear shock towers in so now I know it's a 92



You can see the variants in the shock towers here from Fiber Lyte


Need to get some of those ordered to go with the rest of the new stuff for the car that should be landing in the next couple of weeks, can't wait to get started and get it back in the track

I'm not sure if I'm gonna use it yet pal and if I don't then it's yours. I thought you bought a black one or was I mistaken?
Your friend in eBay has a nip black one with the bit you need you know the only problem it's in white.

New chassis arrived today so it can now have as much abuse as I can throw at it when it's built and run

I managed to get a bit of spare time last night and get stuck in to the 92. After a bit of a strip and a clean I've added a new front tower, front diff, bulkhead cap, servo saver, driveshafts and of course the carbon chassis. I am I need of a front bumper if anyone has any.

All the parts are NIP thanks to Alian3t for that who found a treasure trove of old yoke parts in the US. When I'm done I'll get a pic with all the header cards.

I wanted to change the chassis as the original one hasn't got a mark on it and I wanted it to stay that way, and I really like the carbon one 😎 I'm also going to get some carbon towers and Lipo holders made by the same guy from 3mm thick when he gets my drawings.

Looks good, i used rubber servo grommets for the front top deck holes. Think I've got the first 91 style Kydex bumper in a packet somewhere, still never got round to making the others.

I thought it looked like kydex I was going to get one from shapeways as mine has bred painted matalic purple
I was wondering what I was going to use for the top deck so thanks for that Lee. I have a idea of how I want to mount the servo I just need to find the bits I need
