turok007 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 buy a extra car and stick half of it to the rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveyb84 Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 buy a extra car and stick half of it to the reari thought about doing that but it doesnt look quite that simple:-/ looks like its the rear part bonded / screwed on somehow. A plate underneath maybe attaching the 2 rear ends but that would cause it flex so im a bit stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead28 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I would suggest that is a custom chassis as it looks very neat to be a "cut and shut" job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveyb84 Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hmmm...... New planOne Sakura ultimate chassis and one piece of GRP I'm going to trace my chassis and rear plate and make my own custom one with ultimate running gear.Would GRP be ok for a top plate though or would I need something different?

heavyleftthumb Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 the mst you one listed was custom made, new chassis and top brace and additional rear diff and holder. and then custom middle spool and then calculate what belt is needed rear diff. a lot fo work from scratch but oh so cool think this was a cement mixer lorry when it was finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveyb84 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 I've ordered some more GRP because my sheet isn't big enough but I'm going to make my own chassis and top plate and give it a go The only bit I'm struggling with is the double diff 2nd axle and the rear with the short belt. I'm hoping to leave enough space between the axles so the smaller Sakura rear belt will pull tight and work.
