I guess the normal velvets shocks are

W5194V Triple Cap Thread Shock (30mm)
W5195V Triple Cap Thread Shock (42mm)
W5196V Triple Cap Thread Shock (38mm)

Not sure which size is the best for the Lazer ZX.....
Any suggestions are welcome!

Guys I just bought a set of alloy pivot blocks that are now being made, forgotten the name of the company but they are not an exact copy of the originals and don't fit correctly. I have emailed the chap making them asking if he can rectify as I cannot use if they don't fit correctly. Front rear gearbox pivot block the holes are drilled in the wrong place as they are just off centre so not an easy fit and the rear two blocks the wishbone holes are closer to the gearbox and the rear block cannot be turned upside down so cannot use on jumps without kick up. Im a bit gutted about this.

Was it the ones from Pargu? I just bought a set but have not had a chance to test fit them. I'm not sure if the seller is that fluent in English, I have sent questions to his website in the past and never received a response

[Welshy40]

Well i hope he comes back to me as if he doesnt no one will buy from him.

Pargu's prices are bloody expensive too!

Expensive yes but not too far off the original team line price. I need them and am not fussed. He has replied to me and says he will send out another set. I will keep you posted.

Hi,

I've got some LA245s for the front of my ZXR so I got some blue wheel hexes for them. The question is can I use ZX-5 wheel shafts (part no. LA233) for the rear so I can use the blue hexes on there too?

Any help is much appreciated.

I have a standard ZX plate that I put a recess into so that it would clear the mid gearbox with ZX bellcranks when I test fitted but at the time I didn't realise that the 39655 bellcranks are a different height.
You can see the mod I did to the ZX plate in the pic below against a standard one.

here are my steering pics for mid.

Iso,

My search on Oople is not working anymore and is doing my nut in. What kyosho drive shafts for the Lazer ZX-5 are a direct firt for the standard size UJ and the front longer UJ. Do they come in silever I wonder?

[Welshy40]

Found it, anyone interetysed please see below curtousey of Iso.


Quote:

LA231 is 68mm long (coloured Black)
LA232 is 65mm long (coloured Black) - Longer front long one
LA245 is 62.5mm long (coloured Silver) - Is this the rear one?
LA257 is 73mm long (coloured Silver


Yeah the LA-232 is the correct for the front
Tha LA-245 i have bought those and they are the same as the UM510 ie they have the long axle with the 62.5 bone if you get the um ones they come with an sleeve to make it shorter but it wont fit with the hexes that you and i use the VZW-10 ones.

So for the rear on my lazers what i have done is that i have gotten the 62,5 bone and the LA-231.02 axle.

It makes everything easier.

La-232 is the straight for the front and no they not shiney for the rear use um-510 bone ( wich are shinney ) and la-231.02 axel

Btw 3racing have some shiney ones if you really want them

One other thing you can do with the LA-245 is use the collar set for the ZX-5 between the hex and the bearing, if you are running the wider front might not hurt to add a couple mm width to the rear or if you are running the narrow front you can use the collar to give you a couple mm extra track

I'll be experimenting with all this, one day!

the cars better with a narrower rear end as the wider front males the car much more user friendly as well as more stable

No, not at all, those pics helped me see how it all goes together as its a bit different to how the ZX bellcranks and steering plate are stacked together
