Speedytriple Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 Cheers guys. Few issues with things touching the body and steering link hitting shock springs. just waiting on some longer steering plates which should stop that and the cab only body should sort out the rear end. Front driveshaft hits the battery tray too so could do with somewhere else to locate it. Hopefully getting a 3D printer off the Mrs for my 50th in a few weeks so should be able to make something (if I can work out how to use it) 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shergar Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Looks fantastic - but why the shell change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because the rear wheels now catch the shell. I could perhaps space the wheels out a bit more, but the 6 bolt hex thingys seem to have a slightly odd size on those steelies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shergar Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I see! Would wider Hex work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedytriple Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Yeah probably help. do you happen to know what size standard hex is? I’ve seen 8mm available from Samix (if we can get that in UK) but probably not really worth it if standard is 6mm or something. cheers.

Speedytriple Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 Update to the Enduro. New body, Yeah racing driveshafts - had to shorten the outer sleeve on the front as it was a little long and stopping full compression. Fastrax Brass C hubs and carriers. Annoyingly will have to change front bumper as the wheels hit it on full lock. Added a pic of more of the fleet. Hobao Hyper VS Pro (won courtesy of Hobby comps) Daughters FTX Vantage, converted into Carnage with 17mm wheel adaptors and wheels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think that the other day but on closer inspection decided it wasn’t. I’ll check again later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Hi Please can I ask, is there a UK supplier for the Rock Pirates frame rails, or did you have to import them from USA? Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
