G'day folks, chasing a single H/L suspension arm , metal, for a KV 1.
I got 'adversely affected' by Austpost on the KV I got off ebay from Victoria.
Box was munted and when I got the packaging off, a right side roadwheel was broken off the arm.
Seems there are loads of Taigen ones around, but not H/L ones that I can find..........

Appreciate the help to get this one back up & running again

Herman, I don't know if I have what you're after. It's metal, but it doesn't use the "wound spring" that the Heng Long ones do. This has a slotted shaft that goes through the hull side wall to engage a torsion leaf or rod, and uses a 3mm grub screw to secure the wheel shaft. I am guessing that it is Tamiya (torsion spring), or maybe one of the aftermarket (Asiatam?) metal hulls for the KV (torsion rod). I have six of them extra, if you think they would be worth trying. -Mike

I was wondering if your "Tank'ladins cave" had anything!!, but in this case, no sorry mate, they wont work.
I have done a creative repair on the busted one which will be ok for now, but I will need to get some new arms for it.
Appreciate you looki ng
