10.2 Hardened Steel 12.9 screw kits?

[Rekreant]

Does anyone know of a screw kit that matches the 10.2 manuals? Tonys screws sells good quality screws, but the kits they have listed are all for SCX10 version 1s.

AH thanks, I forgot about them. Do they list it as 12.9 specifically? Im gonna google it.

Nope, they only offer stainless steel, which is much weaker.

Why do you need such high strenght screws?

I always break plastic and aluminium parts wayyy before screws.

Stainless is peace of mind for trails with wet sections.

Because Im a 250lb gorilla with shaky hands, I end up stripping out the heads on screws way more than I like. I know that 12.9 heads do not strip near as easy. I have a bunch of high quality stainless on my 3d printer, and Ive had to replace a fair amount of them because I strip them. I know that black oxide rusts, but it will take a lot longer for it to lose integrity because of rust than me messing up the head ya know? I take my trucks a part a lot to clean / tune them.

Team KNK does not have a kit for the scx10.2. They only have stainless, as I said 2 posts ago. Stainless is junk. I ended up making my own diy kit from Tonys Screws. I am very pleased.
