Fr8cture's JK8

[joe122]

That is a very well executed build! Great parts, looks killer, awesome stance! Love the green!

[fr8cture]

Got some new stuff today. Mamba X esc and BEC 2.0 arrived.





Bec doesn't fit the tray will have a revised version coming soon.

Also got my vp knuckles really not big on the black can barley tell they are there. Oh well.



And with lockeduprc scale hardware.



One thing to note is you have to install the knuckles onto the axle before bolting the high steer arms on. Kinda odd.

Got my new electronics tray in. Got the Mamba x and bec 2.0 mounted up. The Holmes sensor wire fits in the wire channel perfectly.

Any reason you didn't use the internal BEC on the Mamba?

Don't trust it. I blew the bec in MMPs before but sure how this one will do.

I read this after I installed mine. Went back and played with it a bit and on mine it doesn't make a difference which way they're installed. The arms don't interfere with fitment of the pivot mounting hardware. There is some binding somewhere in my steering setup but haven't determined where just yet.

Screw head didn't fit through the arm on my 3 sets of knuckles.

Got a little updated. Changed up my wheels and tire combo to Lockeduprc black hatchet wheels, dual tone black rings, and the new alien compound 1.55 growers. Also got my sliders last week. Waiting on bumpers.




A few weeks ago the hood scoop popped up on each side cracking the paint so mid repair on that.

That wheel and tire combo really look good. Question what would have caused the hood scoop to pop like that?

Great wheels. I just picked up my set of black hatchets with gold rings. Really nice pieces.

Nice this is my 4th seto of AO8 wheels they are great just need some scale rotors for them.

[calcagno45]

Good to hear. I was hesitant to go AO8 but they look much better and provide a better wheel design with smaller hub areas.
