little bit of help please?
 

Hi I've been rebuild my old kyosho optima mid and found that I have a striped diff gear
The part number is ot-85 I've seen them on ebay but only from the states has anyone got one in there boxes that I could tease away from them new or used just want to get it all back together with out waiting for postage from america
Anyhelp is greatly received
Also I've noticed a lot of lwb and swb chassis the car I have is a original kyosho optima mid the box has yellow outline and the car has the white bodyshell on the box if I wanted to buy a new chassis which one do I need lwb,swb oris there a option that's a normal one?
Once again any help is much appreciated thanks guys

The centre gear is the weak spot in the gearbox, so I expect it will be hard to find someone with a spare one. Pargu makes an alloy one, but I don't know anyone who has used one.

As for chassis, if it's a narrow chassis with stick pack battery holders it's short wheelbase, if it's a wide chassis with cutouts for saddle pack batteries it's long wheelbase.

I HAVE THE pargu2000 alloy center gear and its great. you should try it. it holds up to the 8.5T i am using on my Mid.

hithanks for the help
toying with the idea of selling it on
its in good condition apart from the gear thats striped
and some were down the line ive had to put a silver front shock on one side(dont ask havnt a clue when that was)
