| Another early bronco build, by 00racer
had some spare parts laying around decided to throw this together I didnt spend a lot of time building it was gonna have all stock suspension but I got impatient. decided that i wanted a fun little basher specs are homemade chassis 1/2 square tube bent to shape then cut in half homemade aluminum shock towers cut on the bandsaw scx skid, tranny and axles 1.9 proline super swampers on axial plastic wheels mixxed pile of links tp mg945 servo sidewinder esc an old 27 turn motor 3s lipo might bolt on a winch not sure yet on to the pics body is just sitting on for mock up I used 1 gallon oil jugs for inner fender wells well the maiden voyage didnt go so well. first its way to fast, drag brake makes it do front flips, and then the carnage this is what i came up with to repair the rear 4 link had to trim the wheel wells a bit the flex shot lol still in need of some bumpers video is short, out of focus and totally unrealistic....... so enjoy http://s720.photobucket.com/albums/w...0768496915.mp4 Last edited by 00racer; 11-13-2012 at 03:22 PM. |

I decided it needed some rock sliders and they serve dual purposes, you cant see it very well but the battery mounts to the under side of the floor pan and it leaves the battery exposed. now the sliders act as a battery protector too. |

well the wife is officially pissed that i spent all day working on this. so i decided that it need a front bumper. I think the stinger sticks out a bit to far but its done, i may change it later. |

i still need to build the mount for the servo winch but there is lots of room behind the grill in front of the steering servo. i did get the fair lead mounted |

Havent done much with this rig but beat on it. I did finally get the servo winch mounted, it still needs a proper hook but it works awesome. the mandatory flex shot |

As small as that body is. It looks right at home on there. Excellent work! |
