Tamiya Tiger I Late

Post by Code501 »

Hey all, I've procured a (badly) build Tamiya Tiger I FO and have been looking for parts to convert it into a Late model. I know Axel carries some Mid parts (For the Hobby Boss kit) that should work on a Late and have seen that RCTank.DE carries the Late rollers (https://www.rctank.de/Tamiya-Tiger-I-La ... gs-in-1-16)

My question is: Are there vendors that carry the Late aftermarket parts that are strictly made for Tamiya OR do I need to adapt the Late Torro/Taigen parts to fit?

Most of doing a late tigers diy, the stuff schumo do is generally common to both tanks. However the hobby boss tiger whilst being a mid version is a good source of parts. I used a mixture of voyager photo etch, the hobby boss tiger and scratch building to make mine.

As I thought. Seem to have located most of the parts I need. I thought Schumo's Late offering was much wider in the past....?

Will Taigen/Torro or Asiatam metal tracks fit the Tamiya Sprocket? Anyone know from experience?
