| Re: TImely - 2.2 Dual Trailing Arm, Titanium rod Ultra 4 What Timely looked like before it was sent to Casey. Casey TIG welded new link tabs and added some bracing to the spare tire tube along with a radiator mount and a 2 inch Vanquish Products light bar in the front and a 4 inch Vanquish Products light bar main. |

| Re: TImely - 2.2 Dual Trailing Arm, Titanium rod Ultra 4 After the rebuild I put slicks on Timely and drove on the street with Nova's Ark and Nova's Ark was driving a 2wd slash and we crashed on the street and Timely took a good tumble and the carbon fiber servo/upper link mount plate cracked and the chassis got tweaked.. I made a new plate out of 1/8 aluminum I never took any pictures of it. I also straightened the chassis best I could. I put Timely all back together and on the second battery the upper rear link mount ripped out again. Pictures You can barely see the aluminum servo mount in this picture. I took Timely apart and cleaned everything. Timely now just sits on the shelf as a bare chassis. The parts from Timely have not yet been used in a new build yet. |

I still have a chunk of ti plate on the water jet guy's desk, if you're feeling up to welding titanium I can have beefier plates cut out. Extending the link tabs up and forwards should give enough surface area to stay together.

| Re: TImely - 2.2 Dual Trailing Arm, Titanium rod Ultra 4 Hmmm. I dont have a purge block or a correct cup to TIG weld titanium at the moment. The weld broke from what looks like contamination I dont think any tab will work since the tube is contaminated with two welds what do you think? Thank You -Gavin |
