  1. I was just having a look at my pictures and I found these very old pictures of what my Fg Marder used to look like. Old pictures of what it looked like. And what it looks like now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I could do I will have a go one day.
  3. I have now changed the wheel nuts round because I said that I couldn't do them up to tight or the wheels get to tight if I did they are tight but not to tight I have just nipped them up changed them for black ones because the black ones where shorter than the ones that were on it and now they are on the threads more so won't come undone. Ones that were on it before The black ones look better they match the wheels.
  4. I know the camber doesn't look rite I actually like the look of it like that I am not that bothered about it the car works and that's all I wanted I will see how I get on with it I might one day sort out the camber. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I got it of Viking Caveman of eBay he done the body lines I stuck the rest of the stickers on it.
  6. I am one happy bunny after all the work I had to do to make them fit.
  7. I think I am going to leave it as it is and see how I get on I am actually starting to like the look of the camber now.
  8. Yes I know do you think it will be alright like that.
  9. Just looked on this thread on my previous pictures I posted up I haven't got any negative camber on them pictures now I have quite a lot I got it wrong on the 2 reply up do you thing it will be alright like that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Also just tried the back wheels and as I said if I done the wheel nuts to tight on the front the wheels get hard to turn so I done this on the back now and I had them up mega tight I slackened them of a bit and now they are easer to turn so I have been loosing drag because of this so my car should be a little bit more faster now.

  11. Okay are you ready for this guys. Here is the modifications I had to do to make my front hubs fit. I had to cut my Dogbones [emoji46]. I didn't really want to cut them but I had to they where rubbing in the drive cups I will get some shorter ones when these ones break[emoji106]. I had to rap insulation tape round my bearings so they would fit in hubs the hole was to big. I had to put 4 washers top and bottom because the bolts that go through the hubs was rubbing on drive cups. Then also found that I needed to make my suspension harder to lift the arms up so the dogbones don't rub on the drive cups it still does it a little bit but it is not as bad as it was the wheels do turn around okay now[emoji12]. Also done the suspension the same on the rear to. Had to put tap round my suspension so the o ring fitted on because it was to big. Had some fun with this lube [emoji13] no only joking. Put the lube on moving parts to help them move better like on the Dogbones etc. Also noticed that I couldn't do the wheel nuts up to tight because the wheels were hard to turn if I did they are tight but not mega tight like how I had them before. Here's how the camber sits. Please note the camber was like this with the standard hubs were on if anything it's a little more but not a lot. It took me all day and a little bit last night but I got there in the end had a couple of moments when it was getting on my nerves and swearing I am now one happy bunny[emoji4]. And other thing some one on here told me you don't need to run a heatsink I tried the car to make sure the wheels go round and they do had it on full whack to get the lube into the moving parts I had the car siting on something I let the car sit for a while I then touched the heatsink and it was hotter than the motor heatsinks are designed to transfer the heat from the motor on to that so I think you do need to run them with brushless motors.
  12. No mate I didn't want to put the magnetic body posts on it I like the body posts sticking out of the bonnet.
  13. Hopefully it hasn't altered my geometry.
  14. I will check toe tomorrow and also see what the steering is like to.
  15. Yes I had to put spacers above and below the knuckle the screws where rubbing on the drive cup I am going to put washers on tomorrow because the gold ones that I put on are to much and basically the screws aren't in the threads far.
