Matt B Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Same, I remember this truck from the days when I frequented BYT Think I'm still the 13th highest poster there, and I've not posted in 3 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom C Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Epic! Very nice work on that new chassis i must say, When you said brushless back then in 2004 people must have looked at you a bit gone out lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyscrash Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 that was a sweet build, wish i had used my slr for my build now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi, errr no, the cvds were one of the first things I bought! so they are 8 years old, the UE diffs have quite long cups and sit fine with the cvds, Can you wind the pillow balls in to get the whole hub closer? Tried that, it sorta works, but then the steering becomes restricted. Maybe I should dig them out and try again, they cost me a small fortune!

Maybe I should dig them out and try again, they cost me a small fortune! If you want to measure them I can compare them to mine? Other thing you can try is to put a shim or two over the cvd axle before you put it through the hub carrier to bring it closer to the middle.

I'll dig them out over the weekend, they've not been used for about 2 yrs, what a waste. Cheers for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitroholic Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Liking the look of those machines..... what's the spec on those?

shdaxner Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Thread revival! After recently getting a pretty much standard emaxx I thought I would have a search on the forum for some build threads and stumbled across this beasty Amazing work and only wish I had the skills and equipment to do something similar.
