1.55 SxS Race Rzr
 
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2b7bbc7372.jpg

Spring better come soon or im going to run out of things to build. Hope im posting in the right place, But here we go.
Wanted to build something in 1.55 for awhile now, even tire and wheel choices are very limited. Bought a 1/16 revo roller to plant rc4wd stamped bead locks and mud thrasher tires on.
Got it all built up and hated it, as you can see in the picture it looks like a golf cart. Luckily found a really awesome guy on another forum that made a pdf template for a stretched chassis plate.
Bought a scroll saw and made one up...

I will eventually relocate the source and give due credit to the designer of this.

Really like the added length and look of chassis plate.

I decided to make a departure from build plan here and spend more money. Never happens. I want swing arm suspension like new can am x3. Will eventually run 90mm and 100mm gmade rsd shocks.

Did you use pop rivets to keep the cage together...?

I did. Although its a less spectacular way to build a cage, i find it gives more structure to some joints. Especially after you solder them.

Ditched the old cage and used alum sheet metal for body. Much easier to acheive the look im going for, while also losing some weight.

Little gold and red in black should do the trick.
