Hi Guys,

Jconcepts do bell cranks in black or blue alloy. Direct replacement and come with bearings also.

Yeah thanks, Apex can get them in for £24.99 plus post

Thought i may have been able to save a few quid

so thought I'd see what others are fitting first

I didn't like the look of the stock steering setup on the Re-re either.
So opted for the Worlds Setup, fits straight on, add 4 bearings and all good to go

Knighthawk.... That looks like the standard re re kit issue. Is it somehow different?

I like the price tag 👍

The RC10 worlds bell cranks were taken from the R.W and MIP versions for the RC10 Team before the worlds came out.

If you buy the worlds bell cranks you will need four bearings. Even the worlds re-re comes with bushings.

I think the bearings are the same as the schumacher gt12 axle bearings. Mb models will sort you out as they stock the bearings.

I take it you have gold pan re-re with the same bell cranks as the team models. Another trick from back in the day was to zip tie either side the bell cranks to stop play.

Hope that helps.

Xfactor,

My re release has a black chassis.

I'd have loved it to have been gold but unfortunately not

I just thought there was quite a lot of friction in the bell crank,(bushes not bearing on mine) so thought I'd upgrade it for something else.

Ok if its the black machined chassis its the worlds re-re, yes ?

If so you only need four bearings for the bell cranks. They will be perfect with these in. I cant understand why associated never included these.

If it is the worlds re-re the bearings you can get from mb models they keep them in stock. They are the same bearings as the gold pan rear hubs/axle bearings cant remember size.......
