Scotland's Big discussion 2013

[Pharrel]

Actually, I saved you, with a spare arm of mine.

Well that's awkward. Thanks a lot Ross   No one told me who's arm that was so I assumed it must have been Richards.

[Rossyra]

I suppose Richard  still had a hand in it, hehad just given me an A-arm the week before, but I didn't have it with me so I just gave him one of my spares to put on for you 

[Pharrel]

I should find an alternative way to mount the 8400mah battery. It fell out 5 or 6 times at the last bash...

5T has had a few upgrades added and raring to go for Sunday

What u fitted

[Rossyra]

Replaced the front wheel hubs because they were worn out and wobbly, added a Turtle Racing Tranny case, the Power Control Slipper Clutch, alloy rear shock supports, quick-release rollcage tubes, and a new gunmetal gearplate.

 

I've ordered a Turtle tranny plate too because the Numbnutz one is fractured at the brake sadly. Not fatal, but it will need changed.

 

I changed the gaskets on the pipe too because they were leaking and gave the pipe a little polish, looks great 

[Rossyra]

Oh, and rebuilt the diff with some 10,000wt Louise oil 

...and some custom  titanium tunbuckles 

[Rusty1103]

Sounds really good buddy, a bit jealous as well, is it going to fly?

[Rossyra]

Maybe a little 

[richarddenton1982]

Good stuff Ross. Was that tranny case intended for your 5b?

[Rossyra]

All of that stuff was. I'll tell you about it on Sunday, probably not appropriate to talk about it here.
