Jacksprogis Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Ahh, Fine combo once again. Stick to the plastic steering link if you intend to have it as a little bit more bashing orientated dude. VP Ti linkage I ran ate servo cases, 4 hitec 8380/7950 ones to be precise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Diffs I'm very impressed by the meaty UJ's Finished axles with alloy chubs, knuckles, lockouts and trusses Next up will be the shocks, but they are not the stockers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-z-awd Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 the chubs and steering knuckles are on the wrong side and upside down. the left should be on the right and the right should be on the left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 There's something missing??? Lol Enjoying the build mate? Have fun with the cage/interior bit of it...you may wish an extra pair of hands had been grafted on, when they took the appendix out!

.AJ. Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) Yea really enjoying the build so far, I'm doing the cage at the moment, but Im going to be leaving out the interior for now as I'm still wait for all the electrics to turn up and don't have the paint I want for it yet Edited January 9, 2014 by .AJ.

Noj Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Now that looks more like it! Any specific plans for siting of the electrics? I stick my 3s bricks under the bonnet, in that first gap between windscreen and cross brace...means a long battery lead, but works well. Do wish I'd fitted better shocks....the stockers have emptied many miles ago rofl! Feeling inspired to fettle mine some more and use it! Very capable and looks fantastic when running...

.AJ. Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 I'm going to stick the battery forward like you've said, running a 3000mah 3s. also going to do the opening bonnet mod as well for easy access Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Interesting...shall look forward to that bit of the build...mine's done via a pair of traxxas ally pins thru the bonnet and body clips...snug fit, mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
