Default 1r3lands game changer rock bouncer build
Whoever knows me knows I'm not the best with the build threads, working the hours I do and having a new baby around the house I stay pretty busy so it's sometimes hard to update my builds as I wish lol
But here is what I have so far.

I contacted TUNER about building a chassis for me, and I'll be 100% honest and say I was a little skeptical about it only because I have never really seen his work , nor ever spoke to him, I only saw a couple pictures of a chassis he built before he became a vendor so I sent him a couple messages and I told him if he could build game changer I'd buy!!!

Well he did, and it was at my door less than 2 weeks later from the first message I sent to it being in my hands.

But I will say , that guy went ABOVE AND BEYOND my expectations building me my game changer chassis. He's got my future business from now on for sure!! Great guy to deal with and super quick turning out my work of art. He kept me updated with plenty of progress pics and Great communication.
THANKS MAN!! You did a fantastic job and I have nothing but good things to say about you and your work!!

I'll be running a tekin pro4 4000kv with a tekin rx8 esc mainly on 3s. Hitec 7950
Built wraith trans with all RR gears, MIP shafts front and rear, loaded VP wraith curries with vp lockers and hd bevel gears , VP VVDs , etc etc

I picked up a new set of VPs kmc rockstars the day they were re released and will be running 2.2 tsl's .

I planned on using my proline power stroke shocks but they were a bit to short so I picked up some new unbuilt 103mm gmade xd diaphram shocks on here From a member. I think I'm gonna limit the fronts or maybe get the next size down , 103mm seems to be a tad bit high for my liking.

In the mean time I'm waiting for my Ti links to get here so I can get it all back together and hopefully get it beating up some rocks.

I've still got a lot of work to do and still have not came to a 100% decision on color scheme yet.

Here are some pics, I'll try and keep people posted as I can.

I NEED to get it to powdercoat. Just still not 100% decided on color.
Plus I'm still waiting on that radiator to get back in stock so I can weld tabs on the back to mount it... Dang thing has been out of stock since you started the chassis lol!

The scale shop has the one sided ones , but I need the 2 sided ones since both sides will be seen. He said he expects them anytime now

Still not 100% set on gearing choices yet. I have a handful of Pinions I'm gonna try to find the sweet spot. But will keep you posted on what my end result is

Little update.

I like the green rod ends with green panels. A chrome chassis would look killer with those.
