| Ballistic17's Rock Bouncer
New project in the shop. Picked up this Donald Jenkins bouncer chassis. Plans are to repaint it. Do a scale interior and possibly scale engine. Will be using a scx10 trans and SSD-RC D60 axle housings. On the front and rear I'll be using the D60 wide splined brass tubes and cvd axles. Links will be custom made. Not sure on shocks yet. Will be running CNC Custom Wheels and Pit Bull Growlers. Electronics are still up in the air. Pictures from Donald Jenkins... Previous owner picture... Current pictures...

I love bouncers. I can sit and watch MADRAM and Busted Knuckle on Youtube for hours!

Did a little more work. Started mocking up links. Think I got the front where I like it. Might need to pull in the rear though. The shock angle looks pretty steep. Will have to play with it more once I get the shocks built. |

Could you go with a trailing arm rear to bring the lower shock mounting in more but keep the wheelbase? Thats if you like it where its at.

| Re: Ballistic17's Rock Bouncer I probably could. But after messing with it some more it's not that bad of a angle. Need to make the uppers a little shorter though still.
