Aluminum FR pivot blocks and steering racks
 
I'll now be selling the RF pivot block in aluminum made by a local machinist. I have 0/3, 1.5/3 and 3/3 blocks in stock, as well as 1mm shims to raise the 0/3 to 1.5/3 with 1 shim or 3/3 with 2 shims. They are otherwise an almost exact copy of the stock pieces.

The pricing is as follows

pivot block- $20
pivot block with 2 shims and longer screws- $30

Shipping options
International- $10
North America- $5

Prices are all in Canadian dollars, so price will be slightly more then half for pounds. Pm me if your interested with the quantity of parts what country you're from. All parts will be shipped in a padded envelop.

Very nice!
These are RF however aren't they? not FR?

rcjunky 02-02-2012 01:43 PM

I would think they're the front of the rear, I guess it depends on how you look at it.

jimmy 02-02-2012 01:48 PM

No worries - it's just that Team Durango's own naming convention would dictate this being on the front of the car. When I saw the thread title I thought it must be something for the DEX410 is all.
Look awesome anyway!

rcjunky 04-02-2012 04:32 AM

I just updated the first post to clarify on the shipping options. Unfortunatly to get tracking costs alot more :( I can get to the post office during the week so if you order on the weekend I'll get your package in to the post office Monday.

OneKiwi 04-02-2012 08:37 AM

Got a pic of the steering rack yet?

rcjunky 04-02-2012 12:31 PM

Pic are up of the shims and steering rack. I can also special order losi xxx t-plate, xfactory x6 rear shock towers (in aluminum, abs or clear lexan) and rear ballstud hangers for the 22 to flip the rear arms for a shorter wheelbase

rcjunky 06-02-2012 08:41 PM

Once my next group of orders goes out tomorrow I'll have the following in stock

2 1.5/3 blocks
2 3/3 blocks

I'll be getting more parts Wednesday but I'll no longer be selling any more steering racks after I get the last 2 made, so I should have 2 more for sale and thats it, too many other companies have them released. That being said, I'm not sure how long I'll be selling these parts so if your interested let me know and I'll let you know when I have more parts in.

rcjunky 12-02-2012 03:00 AM

A few more will be going out Monday (couldn't get to the post office friday:thumbdown: ) Is there any more interest is a 0.5/3, 2/3 and 3.5/3 block and shims?

FURAX 12-02-2012 11:39 AM

Hi i'm french, and i'm interested but not sure to understand well...:wtf:
looking the pictures, it seems like originals parts:
without shim, it's 0/3
one shim, 1,5/3
two shims, 3/3

In your last message, you're talking about 0,5/3 2/3 and 3,5/3

could clear me?
i need for two DEX210

Thanks
David

rcjunky 12-02-2012 12:46 PM

right now I sell 0/3, 1.5/3 and 3/3 blocks. each shim will raise it by 1.5 degrees, so the 0/3 with 2 shims can be uses as a 0/3, 1.5/3 and 3/3 block. I also might be able to get 0.5/3 blocks made for those that want 2/3 blocks with 1 shim. If your still unclear, pm me and I'll try explaining it a bit better.

FURAX 12-02-2012 05:01 PM

Ok, i understand:thumbsup:

I'm waiting for a third pilote to know if he wants one and i send you an order :)

FURAX 14-02-2012 02:58 PM

I've sent you a PM :)

rcjunky 14-02-2012 09:47 PM

I should be all caught up on my pm's, send me another one if I missed you. There was a guy from Canada who had pms blocked so I can't reply to your, change your settings and send me another message. I'm sold out of steering racks and probably won't be getting any more, theres a few other companies now making them for about the same amount. I'm going to be looking into 8mm longer dex210 chassis as well, if your interested, let me know, if theres enough interest I can probably get them made.

pete68 14-02-2012 11:35 PM

burger do that +8 and thanks for the st-rack

canon67 15-02-2012 01:08 AM

WTF your making parts for the 210 now wy dont you make them for the 22 also.

Den :thumbdown:

rcjunky 15-02-2012 02:47 AM

What do ya want? Theres no point in making parts that are already available and I don't know of anything the 22 needs that you can't get. These started as parts for locals that broke the plastic peices and I just keep getting more to sell. I'll have 10 more 0/3 blocks and shims for sale Thursday

maybe he wants the 22 rear shims and Rear screw caps to be in Allu also? coz in 22 the Rear Block screw caps (for Rear motor) is still in plastic and also the Shims.... just maybe...

rcjunky 26-02-2012 01:43 PM

I still have some 3/3, 1.5/3 and lots of 0/3 blocks and lots of shims and screws. If anyone want even more antisquate, I could do the same 2 shim deal with a 1.5 or 3 block

rcjunky 11-03-2012 03:13 AM

I still have a couple 3/3 and 1.5/3 block and a bunch of 0/3 blocks and shims in stock, get them while you can, my machinist is now super busy (was cut back to 4 days and now is working lots of over time, so lots of time to no time)with his real job so once this batch is gone I'm not sure when I'll get more.

rcjunky 20-03-2012 11:21 AM

All order have been shipped, I'll be getting more stock Wednesday. How much interest would there be in a +8mm chassis? If theres enough interest I can get them made.

OneKiwi 30-03-2012 01:58 PM

Still have the blocks and shims?

rcjunky 30-03-2012 07:04 PM

Yup, I have lots of all 3 blocks and shims, keep the orders comming. There is also a new project in the works but it might be summer before I start selling it. Our local track just announced someone else is renting our building so we will be moving out next week and had our last race this past Wednesday, so once we get a new spot to do some testing, then I'll start selling the chassis.

rcjunky 11-04-2012 09:07 PM

still lots in stock. I'll be gone this weekend and should be back Monday so there will be a delay on pm's replied Thursday night until Monday. +8mm chassis comming soon...

fastinfastout 12-04-2012 10:54 AM

can you make blocks from brass?

rcjunky 16-04-2012 05:34 PM

maybe as a special order, the only issue is there would probably be a delay in gettig material and it would cost more, if your interested pm me.

rcjunky 26-04-2012 01:22 AM

still lots in stock, this may be the last run of these depending on interest

rcjunky 20-05-2012 01:38 PM

Still some in stock, all ordes received by noon tomorrow will go out Tuesday (Monday is a holiday here) I've also started an interested list for the +8mm chassis, if your interested I'll put you down on the list (there is no comitment needed, just interest), they'll be $50 plus shipping, if anything changes I'll still honor that price for those on the list. As of now they will be sold in bare aluminum, I'm looking into hard anodizing as well though. No pics yet as my machinist has been to busy with actual work and hasn't been able to start cutting them yet :(

rcjunky 10-06-2012 12:34 PM

Still some pivot blocks available, hopefully the chassis will only be a couple weeks away. I've looked into hard anodizing as well and it seems to be a possibility but I'd need to get a minimum of 50 made to meet the minimum order size, will cost the same to get less done, as of now I don't see enough interest

rcjunky 22-08-2012 01:00 PM

still available

Fernandez 08-09-2012 05:47 PM

you got an PM

rcjunky 28-09-2012 03:06 AM

still have some pivot blocks in stock, +8mm, desc and dest aluminum chassis comming soon

kartstuffer 28-09-2012 02:08 PM

Andrew,:cry: can you please check the post again at your end or give me the info on dates you say the parts were posted as i have checked with post and customs here in Ireland again and they confirm that nothing has come into the country addressed to me from Canada.
Thanks
Ivan

rcjunky 02-10-2012 02:17 AM

I've already looked into it and was basically told there was nothing they could do, I even sent a second package to you out of my pocket to the address you gave me. Nothing came back to me so I'm not sure what else could of happened, like I've said in the pm's I've sent you. I've never had any issues sending parts out world wide so I'm still surprised nothing has shown up at you place. What more fo you think would be reasonable for me to do?

marsolai 08-10-2012 01:57 AM

Do you have any of the pivot block with 2 shims and longer screws left.
I'd by interested in a one if you do. Pm me with your paypal address and the
total with insured shipping to cornwall ontario canada.

Thanks
Brad

rcjunky 12-10-2012 03:08 AM

I'll be bringing probably 4 orders to the post office Saturday morning, if I get payment by tomorrow night they will go out at the same time. Still a couple 0/3's left and a bunch of the 1.5 and 3* blocks

rcjunky 19-10-2012 05:36 PM

bump, I'll be going to the post office soon so get your orders in

rcjunky 21-10-2012 04:24 AM

Just got word today that I'll be selling a couple more Durango bits in the near futur, I'll be starting a new thread once everything is sorted out and I have them in my hands. A quick teaser on just one af the parts below. I'm also looking for some one to make an official logo for the stuff I'll be selling, if your into graphic design we can work on a deal for discounted prices on everything. I'm looking for nothing fancy, pm me for details

rcjunky 03-11-2012 03:18 AM

I'm now out of the 0/3 and trying to get more. The +8mm proto types are ready to be shipped out of testing, once thats done I'll work on a production run. I have 2 pairs of the rear inserts in brass and 2 pairs in aluminum, $30 per pair plus shipping ($10 international, $5 for north america) if you want a pair pm me.

rcjunky 21-11-2012 03:06 PM

I have more of the 0/3 block and shims, as well as the other sizes. I also still have some of the gear box inserts for $30 a pair in brass or aluminum.
