Where to find parts on older boats??? HELP

[msabatos]

I've had a Kyosho Jet Stream 800 electric for 15 years. For the past 10 year it has sat collecting dust until I recently bought all new electronics, motor and batteries for it. I forgot how much a BLAST that thing was!!!

But disaster happened last week when I was running it and the final driveshaft that goes through the outdrive got loose and fell off of the boat. I was in Lake Powell, so I assume the part is some 100 feet below the surface. I guess the loctite wore off of the set screw.

I lost that final driveshaft and prop. Does ANYONE know where to get older Kyosho parts??? I want to run my boat again!!

I think that Tower is getting out of handling Kyosho's so you might have to look up their new web site. CEN Racing and Kyosho share a lot of parts so that may be a place to start at. As a last resort, you might have to make your own.
