Title: Parts for 1:20.3 Climax
Post by: fockewulf37 on October 18, 2012, 04:17:52 AM
Why if you still have the Climax in the 2012 catalog. That you don't carry any parts for the climax. One of my universal joints has a small part broken and need a replacement...It is one of the plastic parts in the universal joint that is connected to the front truck...Is there anyone making after market parts??

Thanks Ty

Sir - the 2012 catalogue show the NEW version of the Climax - how muchof it is a left-over from the previous version is debatable.  I have not managed to locate ANY parts for the older version.  The best plan might be to get hold of a non-runner andcannibalise it for parts.

Hi Ty:

Call Bachmann parts. I've got some small Climax parts from them. Do you have the one piece long drive shaft or the improved two piece one they brought out after the first run. With the one piece shaft, if one truck stalled, it could damage the gear train. The two piece has a slip joint so if one truck stalls, nothing is damaged.
