super, heavy duty, ultra brute, big rig-athalon X2.

Thanks Crunky. One you finish the Rock Cop you should do a tube buggy. They are challenging but fun.

Thanks Saydee. I certainly hope to but that is a pretty stacked field. We will see how it plays out.

I'm not going to lie to you, that front end shock made me pee a little from fear.

My work is done. Making someone pee themselves is all I needed to hear.

Thanks Kaetwo.

That's a fatty. I weight The Pirate last week with the heavy wheels 10.4 lb

What are you running tungsten in those wheels

He is a fatty.

The wheels each weigh 1 lb, the skidplate itself weighs .5 lb, and the cage weighs 2.5 lbs. Guido is a heavyweight in every sence of the word.

That looks amazing now that it's all one color. Love the new paint colors. That's the hardest part sometimes..

team3six · 05-13-2010, 11:36 AM

Its not too bad with weight, I think we are both up there with Tims rig. I got mine a couple of weeks ago at 11lbs. 5.5 oz.

ecoli · 05-13-2010, 12:08 PM

I like that new colour. Powdercoated?

Seeing the unbuilt frame just shows how much work has gone into Guido.

Thank Andy, it is tough. Originally it was going to be purple again but I don't like how bad the paint looks after 5 minutes on the rocks so I decided to go with silver to hide the paint chips. After the silver went on I just didn't like the look so I decided on the charcoal.

Glad to see you are part of the fatty club too Norm.

I wish I had time to powdercoat, it's just rattle can right now. Once it starts to look too beat up maybe I can strip it down and talk Juan (CHUD) into powdercoating it for me.

Thanks guys.

Just throw it in a box and ship it to him. Jason is smart enough to figure out the rest.

I'm anxious to see yours come together.

So I took the day off work yesterday. I got ll the suspension and steering links built and fit. The track bar proved to be the toughest. I think you have to see this thing to appreciate how tight the steering and suspension is at full compression. There is no room for error.
I wanted to represent Axial since they stepped up to sponsor the Scale Nats so I went with the green steering links. Plus they match and give the chassis some contrast.

I also rebuilt the leaky Hot Bodies Savage shocks. I used a rebuild kit for Traxxas shocks and added an extra shim to hopefully stop the leaks. I added Traxxas Nitride coated shock shafts which have RPM dual stage pistons. These dual stage pistons really do work and work well.

I filled them with 40 wt oil and stole some blue shock caps off some other HB shocks to give them the King shock look.

sally1800 · 05-15-2010, 10:15 AM

Nice looking motor

Are you planing on putting the holes in that rear plate.

Grizzly4x4 · 05-15-2010, 10:19 AM

I started work on the new bellypan as well. This new pan will gain me 3/16" of clearance without raising the transmission any higher than before. I like the looks of the shorter belly much better too. I think it is more proportional.

I also got the tires mounted.

One of only a handful of custom Createacrawler Aluminum EZ-Locs. Definiately beautiful.

I have to figure out a couple things to fit the tranny in there. I am getting some interference with the upper link mounts. It's friggin tight.

No body shots yet, I have not started painting yet.

Thanks for looking guys.

sally1800 · 05-15-2010, 10:21 AM

Those are nice wheels. Are they new? How wide to they get you?
