TLT Axles

smr4runner · Jan 3, 2007

Any regulars of RCH know if Geno recieved the TLT parts inventory yet?
I wanted to see before I order through Tammies.

Yes, but I think I bought it all :kissmyass:

Kidding,

He has cases, outer stubs axles (both blackfoot??? and stock),steering hubs,etc... Last time I checked he was still waiting on inner axles.

That's about what I heard too. When I was there late last week, he had some parts, but didn't have pinion gears in yet.

Darn. I'm needing the inners.
I'll give him a call today.

Tanks guys

I have an one if you want, you can replace it when it he gets the others in. I think it is the short side that I have left, used the one with the tit on it.

I might have an axle collection on hand too. I still have the stock ones that I replaced with Max Climber axles (except for the one I snapped), and I think I got some more Climber shafts since then.

LMK....

Damn. Are the Max Climber axles thicker?
I just made a big purchase including a couple sets of spare TLT axles.

I would like to compare the climbers to the stock TLT's. Reason is I thought Tamiya was now including the same axles on both the Max Climber and RockBuster

all the replacement axles for TLT models are the same, all big.

ya--all the replacement shafts are thicker where it necks down from the ball(with the pin in it). I have yet to break a replacement shaft but have broke like 3 stockers so far and my son has broken 2

Cool guys. Thanks. I thought I was getting the newer axle shafts. Shoot I better since I ordered two extra sets per axle.

For those of you who know I have broken mass parts off my clod.:kissmyass:
But the TLT has held on pretty good till last week. Tuff little rig. :redneck:

hotwheels000 · Jan 4, 2007

will the same bearing still work

crash2 · Jan 4, 2007

yes, the bearings will still work since the bearing area's of the shaft are the same diameter just where it necks down....

Hey guys I can show you the difference at the comp, I have both kinds of axles on hand. I've heard that the newest Buster kits have the larger axles, but don't know for sure. Mine came with the small ones.
