|  Project Roktoy 1.9 Scaler Build
Well.....it was time I try building a scaler for something new. This will probably be a slow project, but here goes. Starting with a set of RC4WD T-Rex 60 scale axles. These things can't be beat for the look of a realistic domestic axle. I was going to go leaf but then turned direction and decided to go 4-link instead, so got a couple sets of the RC4WD link mounts and then made my own upper link mounts. Jay |

That upper link mount is freaking awsome! Can't wait to see what else you come up with for this build.

nice to see another TRUE quality build. I know this one will rank with the best of them. i have your TXT axles with BTA and Machined lowers and uppers.  Still going strong man i cant even imagine what your plans are for the t-rex ones. Last edited by YoUnG_vErSiOn; 02-18-2008 at 11:36 PM. |
