If i remember rightly it's just a R clip?
Like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-clip In which case any model ship that sells RC cars will do them. The are used to hold the bodies onto the cassis. Probably cost you a few pence. If you struggle give me a PM, might have one lying around somewhere, dn't go spending £s for one! Last edited by quik_d; 17-11-11 at 12:49 PM. |

Just whatever you do buy make sure its strong enough, a saving of a few quid can end up costing far more when your pads fall out!! - have seen the after effects of this and it wasnt nice.
