Weapon's Hilux truggy well I had these parts sitting doing nothing. going to try and do something similar to Unglewd's "SCX truggy" http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps475995a5.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps71ca6953.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps4e7d99d4.jpg going to lower it as soon as I find some SCX-10 shocks. and it will have 1.5 rock stompers on it. |
Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy Lots of progress tonight New axial shocks installed Links sorted out Body mounting finished 1.55s swapped from the camper (its getting the new white spokes and new stompers) http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...psc4672102.jpg Still figuring out the wiring and battery mount I will probably use the space under the fuel cell for some electronics and box it in with styrene also need to figure out a good mount for the offroad lights still I cant decide if I care about the huge gap between the cab and the "truggy back" http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps9fd95372.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps80eee21f.jpg need a set of those trailfinder 2 thin hexes to bring the wheels in http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps37805d07.jpg |
Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy Well after making links and fiddling with wheelbase I decided I was too invested so I filled in the gap instead. . http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps92caf3b3.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps0f3b3a87.jpg this should almost disappear once the truck is painted, but I may have to straighten the vertical bars so it doesnt look weird http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps7a35aaab.jpg got lots done filled the holes http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbc9bec14.jpg light bar installed http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...psde853102.jpg this is the cleanest wiring I have ever done http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps8319ef34.jpg the truck is a runner now http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps9ab796bf.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...psf2a67c5e.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps4982527c.jpg |

What are those silver things on your shock hoops?? Magnets? Were did ya get them from? Great idea!!"thumbsup" Looking good! |
Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy Thanks! its the easiest truck I have to change a battery in, yet the cab is nice and secure. rare earth magnets I got a bunch of them from a buddy who installs alarms, not sure of the exact application but pretty sure he uses them for work. they come with a nice countersunk hole already. |
Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy Do you like that light kit? I have heard mixed things about it. I was looking for the most realistic one possible. |
Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy no its junk but it was cheap. You want realistic get a custom controller from HeyOk. You can pretty much pick your options, brake lights that work when you let go of the throttle, brake lights/running lights, turn signals, reverse lights etc. |

Re: Weapon's Hilux truggy No, nothing. I bought a motorcycle this summer after years of not riding, and its been dominating my free time. I will pick up again in the fall, and finish the other projects that have been sitting idle as well. Yes it does I will tell him you said. |
