KC's 2014 RC4WD ECSC 2DOOR JK

[hoyt]

Great build so far

Been checking back to this one since it started. Finally took the plunge and ordered one of these bodies. I have not built or touched an rc for almost a year now but this has helped me get some motivation back. Any way good stuff and keep it up.

A few weeks ago to have a rig while building this one i bought this..

It came with this...
So i added the jack and tow strap

Threw it in and bam! Fits perfect!

And still allows room for a full size one of these...

Update over thx for looking
as always comments and suggestions welcome

Nice build as usual, I really liked your bright lime green four door JK, watching this one too!

Awesome work as always man. Really digging what you've done to the body. Mine is on the way and you've motivated me to cage it out.

thx man and got the internet back!! so here it is.. more...

got the rear end fully sorted out. shock mounts chassis panhard mount. and lower links.. notice I didn't mention upper links... that's because I don't have any.. what? you ask...

for starters the lower links are constructed of 3/16 chromoly tube. I tapped the ends to 6/32 and threaded in a ss screw chopped off access and put rodends on those. super strong super light.. now back to no upper links...

on the driver side lower link I brazed on a tube to go to the inside of the link mount where the shock would normally mount to create an antiwrap linkage. never done it so wanted to try. its all done and the pics should explain it. the panhard bar is still temp till I obtain a 6/32 die to thread some 1/8 stainless round bar that I have. I used this on my past jk and it worked just fine.

I was able to make the panhard bar long enough and parallel to the ground enough combined with the short travel to create no side to side movement during up and down cycle. so I was happy with that. the front is for another weekend as that portion has me still scratching at the dome piece... lol any who here we go. these aren't in any particular order. just for your viewing pleasure. if have any questions don't hesitate to ask. comments always welcome in here.

No.. only the arb diff cover came from rc4wd

Vanquish diff housings with custom ss tubes by carter fab. They are a custom width .750 wider than scx axles.. basically narrowed wraith axles.. as they use all wraith components
