Default Parts Interchange

I have been looking at custom suspension parts and I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-14-RC-car-...item27cd799550
it says its for the Tamiya Man truck. My question is will it also fit a King Hauler?
Thanks for any input

Yes it is the same, all of the Tamiya tandem axle trucks use the same suspension. I have installed that same suspension on a truck and it is very nice. It does however require you to drill holes in the top of the axle housings to mount the upper links.

Very cool thanks for the info they also offer some alum. rear axles with the correct holes for that suspension. they also say for the Man truck so they are also the same in all the tandem trucks?

Yes the axles are the same too. On all the trucks the front axle, transmission, drive axles and suspension are all the same. The trailer suspensions on the tandem axle trailers is the same as the truck suspension. The only real differences are the single axle rear suspension, triple axle trailer suspension and a few of the trucks have a transmission with a guide for the shift rod. The trans with the shift rod guide is the same as the standard trans, it just has one extra hole in the end plate for the 3mm shift rod guide.
