| Roller Leads?
Is anybody making/selling roller leads? I thought I saw a thread a while back but can't find it now. Appreciate any info. Tom |

Try The Scale Shop on the vendor section or MSD.com also on the vendor site.

Thats who I thought it would be too but neither of those guys carry it. I'm sure I saw a thread, just can't find it now. Also, when you search using "roller lead" or 'roller lead', it doesn't search the phrase, it searches each word independently. Am I doing something wrong when searching?

Thanks Griz, thought I was doing something wrong!! Cammo, The link you posted up is of a Hawse type fairlead. I'm looking for something similar to this http://rikpal.golem100.com/rc/images...ech_img/17.jpg BTW, I think I found what I was looking for but I'm at work and whatever site he's using to host the pics is being blocked by our firewall so I can't actually see it. But if anybody is interested here you go. http://www.scale4x4rc.org/forums/sho...oller+fairlead |

Thanks smarty pants!! Yeah I know but my plastic fairlead looks like crap and doesn't roll, it didn't look any better even after I painted it. I did forget that he mentioned his new one was from Privateer. 'preciate the help though! Tom |
