CC-01/XC owners.... Please read.

Here are the front knuckles. I am working with GPM to get some pics of the steering assembly. They haven't been produced yet. I did advise them that we are wanting bearings on the steering shaft and sent them some pics for an example.

I'm really hoping that the steering that they produce isn't just alloy bits that really don't solve the poor design thanks to Tamiya.
well looking at that pic, it looks like the knuckles are going to be stock alloy:cry:...hopefully they improve that...
 
well here are some ta01 knuckles that i found on gpm's site...said that they are made by them...

but for $30 a pair, id much rather go to the links that constantmotion posted about in post #63
Right here.



I have these. They are not a direct drop in replacement. They are steel. They are longer than the stock setup. You will have to get these knuckles for them to work.
 
I received an email back from GPM with the details of the pre-order and a picture of the steering parts. I will post the pic as soon as I get to a computer. I can't post it from my blackberry.

It looks like it is exactly what we are asking for.

they are asking for half the cost up front as a deposit and the remaining half when they ship out. And as stated before, they are offering 15 percent off for those of us who contacted them about producing these pieces.

I was told that they should start shipping in november.

Again I will post the pic as soon as I can.

can't wait to see the pics of the steering parts ;-)
 
here is the picture.

She said that the production units will have bearings even though the pic shows bushings.

At this point I really don't care if they steal the pics or ideas, I just want the parts!
 
Well,if the American suppliers refuse to produce parts, even though demand has been high.. good for them!

hear hear. i hope they make it out of a strong alloy though, i'd pay more than $13 if they're built to last. i've seen too many people complaining about their cvd's snapping on sites like rctech. btw, i got a message from clara when i filled out their web form a few months ago but never got the recent message promising me 15% off. how do i get in on that goodness, i could use that money to support my caffeine habit!
 
Clara from GPM emailed me a list of the products they will be offering for the CC-01 and they included a lot of other parts besides the Steering assembly set....
On the Alloy C hub and suspension arms....are they an exact copy of the original without any mods? In other words installing these alloy suspension arms and c hubs would put the cc-01 back at its stock height and clearance?
I tried looking at the website for photos of the parts but I cant find any...
 
i have to say the customer service at this company rocks, i too got an email back from clara.
i have been discussing how we use our trucks, and how some of us are using department store bodies on the chassis, creating the need for adjustable wheel bases. i explained the use or desire for a new propeller shaft, and a 4 link kit is on the list she said.
they are very quick to respond and are eager to learn more about our wants/needs.

i have pre ordered the steering setup.
very cool info.
"thumbsup"
