Well the 1.7mm pins for the HB car were too large. Worth a try for a couple of quid.

Excellent Mark. Will give them a go.

1) You can buy part 54118 (DB01 WO Assembly Universal Shaft - front). This part includes 9440664 (2 of them). The rear universal shaft includes the part as well I believe. This is a bit expensive though (about $30-$40).

2) Otherwise, you can do a special order from this website: http://www.goldstarstockists.com/menu.htm. The website is not the best, and you won't find the part on it, but send them an e-mail. They are very nice and helpful and they will get the part for you. They will get in touch with Tamiya Japan directly.

Hope that helps,

Peter, thank you for the link will give them a go if the drill blanks are no good.

Thanks for all your help.
