Hi all,

Any one has a spare Taigen KV metal left swing arm lying around ?

MikeC.

I'll have a look.

Broke at the torsion bar did it?

I'll let you know today after work...
Should have some spare ones. (stronger)

The swing arm broke, not the torsion bar.

Thanks all.

Yes, swing arms and they are called "metal suspension arms"
Available from Forgebear.UK or RCTanks.de..
I should have a few spare ones.
You'll have my answer this evening...
So far, I had to replace 4 of them, because the original ones are not thick enough, if you remember our conversation last Saturday.

Thanks mate. Forgebear is selling them for 4 pounds each but shipping is 20. I can get a set for $20 USD if US would ship up here but they won't.

Mike, two suspension arms (one left and one right ) are saved for you...
Now we have to think how to deliver them to you...Do you have any plans to visit Kitchener in the next two weeks or I can meet you in Hamilton on Mar. 24Th. It is up to you.
Think about it
Any other ideas..?

I could grab them on Wednesday if I come up. I found my large sledgehammer to try and attack that concrete light pole in the river and I also have to fill in the big hole I dug getting sand as well lol

It sounds good...
I'll be there after work at around 4 PM...

Thanks boys !

Martin, you don't have to fill the hole. We have a guy coming in with a backhoe to do it.

Maybe we could use the backhoe to yank out the water tank as well!

Mike. did you get your swing arm for KV-1?
It was my last one, still have 2 more for the right side..

Yes yes thank you. Please let me know what I own or what I can trade for you.

You own me nothing...

Hey Wojtek I think we have different definition of left side and right side. When I say Left I mean when you are behind the tank. The arm I got from you via Martin is a right swing arm (my definition).

I will bring it out on Sunday and give it to Dean to pass it back to you. Maybe I will get a spare set from Dom. Do you want to split one with me ?

MikeC

Miscommunication?!?
Keep that one and, if you want to order a few more or the whole set, I'll split the cost of it..
I think We'll need more of them, they are breaking easy (so far changed 4 of them) 
Please let me know..
Wojtek

Okay Wojtek will order a set and split with you !

At least my last package from Dom just got here on Wednesday in 9 days. That included heavier stuff like gearboxes. I did get dinged for taxes. Meanwhile the one I ordered from Axel's has just cleared customs 5 weeks after being shipped with nothing owing and it was worth twice as much. Just ordered more stuff from Axel's. They have amazing stuff you cannot source anywhere else just too bad his shipping method is so slow and expensive in comparison to Dom's

OK Mike, please go ahead..

Mike, I left in Dean's mail box one swing arm (opposite to the other one)
Dean, please check it out and give it to Mike..
Thank you,
Mike, before we get more, you can use this one.
All my spares are gone....
Wojtek

Thanks mate. Spare ones ordered ! Will send you half when it arrives.
