Hello.

- Are all the spare parts available in the "R" spec of the T3, too, or just a few?
- The supplementary sheet of the T3R says 4 silver and 4 golden springs. Is this correct or a printing error?
- And (sorry for that one) why are the composite outdrives of the ball diff at 97% of the price of the machined ones?

Edit: I just ask because I found 2 silver and 2 golden ones in the box.

Thanks,
Stefan

They are not, the machined ones cost the same for 1 half as the composite's cost for both halves

I see. The number shows them as a pair. My LHS named both the machined and the composite ones as "long side" i.e.

Thanks for clarifying that.

- check supplementary sheet where you can find which spare parts are available and which are replaced with standard T3 spare parts
- the springs are sold in set of 4, so the supplementary sheet is correct (in the T3R kit are included just 2pcs for front and 2pcs for rear)

Hello Brano,

where then is the sence in a "R" spec model? I mean I have not bought it because of its low price (and also don't have much wear so far) but just to try out ET and to have something real for the winter besides VRC. I like it and will buy a T3'11 in addition.
But for sure there are hobbyists who are thinking about buying a "R" model because of its price and they would do so because of lower maintenance costs (wished or needed).

If there's no interest in producing most of the "R" spec spare parts like other manufacturers do then at least it would be fair to not only say this in a supplementary sheet via pdf-file (you can't await that eveyone reads a supplementary sheet before buying a product) but primary point on this theme on top of the "R" model'(s)' page. My opinion.

If you check the supplementary sheet than you will find that just the glassfiber parts (chassis, top deck and shock towers) are not produced, instead of them XRAY offers the standard graphite parts. All other parts you can get (alu parts like bulkheads are offered just in orange color, not in silver).

what Ball Studs/Sizes are they using for the installed molded ball cups shown in this picture?

Would like part numbers for the castor blocks, bulkheads, steering arms, rear hubs, etc. I would like to convert my T3 to the molded ball ends.

Thanks much,
Chris

I recently purchased my 1st Touring car, an X-Ray T3 Rubber edition. I don't have a stock of spare parts so I'm looking for a little help.
I have a Futaba S-9551 Servo and would like to know what parts I need for a proper installation along with the proper layout of the linkage.
Everything I have tried causes the rod end to hit the top plate when it passes over center.
Any help on the setup would be appreciated.

Did you add a sufficient amount of shims behind the servo mounting stands to get clearance between the horn and top deck?

I have 2mm shims on the outboard side of the servo mounting stands. The servo arm is still under the top plate, should I shim it until the arm is out from under the top plate?
Is there a part# for an arm to fit a Futaba servo that I should be using? Right now I am using a universal arm and I may be too far out on the arm.

The arm should have 1-2mm clearance off the top plate to not touch it while moving. See picture of my old T3 chassis, however with a different servo:
