Durga screw kit

Hog · #1 28-08-2008

Is there a UK stockist that holds upgraded screws for the Durga kit?

Edit - does anyone know what size bearings I'd need to replace the steering bushes? And are they flanged or not?

Cheers.

Dunno about the Tamiya screw kit, try Fusion or Time Tunnel but for what the opinion is worth I have it on mine and don't rate it. It was an impulse buy at the time (gotta have the latest hop-ups etc etc) and the hexs are too shallow and the titanium is too soft to be durable long term.

When you back the driver off from the tightened screw it sort of unsticks itself with a snapping sound and you think "oh christ, have I rounded it off". Put it this way, I have a Tonys Screws kit on the way for my Durga rebuild.

DCRacing does a stainless steel allen screw kit for the Durga.

The steering bearings are stock Tamiya 850 size ones available everywhere on fleabay for peanuts, they're not flanged or anything fancy like that.

Just installed the Tamiya titanium screw kit, and it works better with an MIP Thorp 5/64" driver than the TRF 2mm. For those of you thinking TCS, try a good 5/64" and these will work out. I did manage to snap one off in the carbon-mix rear shock tower... Those things are tough!
