1st off, Tower does that a lot when they run out of something and dont have a date from which it will be back in stock.

I am sure there are vendors here working on something for us

I could design one in 3d, I just made a new axle, looks like a RC4wd raptor, but with a twist and no measurements are the same~

Bingo. They also stop stocking support parts when the kit they are intended for is disco'd.

Yeah, Tower had a few High Lift parts listed as Disco'd right after they got the parts listed on the site.

Thanks Tamiya, those 2 TLT kits I previously had for sale that didn't sell are looking more and more like good investments.
