Metal Suspension Arms for TAMIYA Leopard 2A6

[zooma]

I am going to fit a full set of ball bearings to my Tamiya Leopard 2A6 to try to take up some of the "slop" that I think may be the cause of some of the broken suspension arms that I have suffered recently.

What I would also like to do is to find a source of replacement metal suspension arms to replace the original plastic kit parts. I am told that they do exist, but I have not been able to find any yet.

If anyone can provide a link to anywhere that sells them I would be very pleased to buy a set, but if anyone has any experience of actually fitting and using metal arms on their Tamiya Leopard 2A6 I would like to know if they fit OK without any modifications, and most importantly - do they work OK?

Hi,
KingKong RC offers some on ebay:

but I recommend the ones from AFV

KingKong RC stuff is sketchy. Never know if it will fit or not from what I've seen from others posting about it.

Thank you Guido,

I have just tried to oder a set of these metal suspension arms and I have put them in my basket, but I cannot speak German so I seem to be stuck at this stage and can make no more progress to pay for them.

I have tried to send them a message to explain this, but again I am not sure if it has been sent (all instructions are in German) and I don't know if they will be able to read my English either!

I hope to be able to resolve this problem and pay for them as these metal arms look good and should hopefully be a big upgrade to the reliability of the tank

Hi Bob.
On my phone I have auto translate.
Therefore I will post a few screenshots of the process.
You are able to pay via bank transfer or PayPal, but they charge an extra 2.95% for using PayPal.
