Where do I buy scale bumper D-rings or shackles that -will fit a SCX10 TR bumper -are the right size and actually look 1/10th scale -are not plastic and break -are not being shipped from some small country in Europe for alot of money and spending 3 weeks on a boat ??????? Do these exist...am I missing something ??? All the posts about D-rings on this forum are from 2007. Please provide links...Thanks guys |

These? http://www.rc4wdstore.com/2/product_...roducts_id=857  They look nice, but are kind of steep at $15 each. But you gotta' pay if you wanna' play.  |

check out these ones on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT they are made for the Tamiya tanks and are metal but seem a bit soft, they do fit on the Axial bumpers and took about a week and a half to get to US from Hong Kong otherwise there are Stefans shackels: http://www.scaleoffroad.de/pageID_4296380.html |

I agree, someone needs to step up to the plate. I've been through this search myself, and they are probably the hardest scale item to find. Quote:

this company specializes in small cast parts for RC military vehicles there some similar ones that M2 hardwear so I'm sure they are smaller (more scale) than some of the other ones out there | |

Its funny how this thread was timely. I actually placed an order with Worth Marine right before this topic was started....Has anyone have any contact info for Worth Marine other than the email on their site? Its been 2 weeks now, and I have no correspondence other than the automated email confirming my order. I have twice emailed them directly during the past 2 weeks for an update and no response, and my credit card has yet to be charged..... These guys still operating? Anyone order from them recently?

Another plus is that the eyebolts are M3 thread whereas the Worth are 2.6mm. A bit beefier, and easier to find a M3 tap if needed. | |
