*BB-51* Scale Chassis Pics / Purchase Thread

[Unimoger]

Here are some pics of everything guys, wanted to start a new thread so everyone could have a reference for assembly and a place to post pics of your truck with the chassis.

First off the specs:
BB-51 Scale Chassis with lay down tranny mount and inboard shocks mounts.
15 1/4" long
3 1/2 " wide, outside to outside

Options of what to buy:

Option 1. Chassis, skid plate, cross rails, inboard shock rail and MSD Link mounts front and rear. $164.95 shipped in the lower 48
Option 2. Chassis, skid plate, cross rails and MSD link mounts $154.95 shipped
Option 3. Chassis, skid plate and 4 cross rails $139.95 shipped

- CNC and Laser cut 6061 billet aluminum, c-chanelled and cross drilled to perfection. That makes our scale chassis the lightest of it's kind on the market, 11.70 oz fully assembled.
- All stainless steel hardware included, 12 - 4mm x 12mm bolts, or 14 if you get the extra rail. plus bolts to mount your tranny to the skid.
- Delrin skid plate, drilled to your tranny, pede, losi or stealth
- Cross rails are 6061 also, drilled and tapped for perfect fit, optional 3rd cross rail in back for inboard shock mounting.
- Shipping is USPS priorty mail in the lower 48 states, we can ship elsewhere for a few bucks more.
- payment is paypal or money order, PM me for payment info.
- If you use a pede tranny, refer to my pics, you will need to shave the ears off and the lowest bolt under the motor, this makes for the lowest mount possible.

*Sorry for the quality of my pics guys, I am working on getting a new camera*

Great work, Ben. I can't wait to put one under the Mog.

[JohnRobHolmes]

Is it wider than the OG version by a smidge? Or is it just the shorter stance that decieved me?

shorter stance, wider , lighter and lower. all good things.;-)

[dezfan]

Looks great Ben. I hope to own one in the future.

[run2jeepn]

That things looks better every time I see it. Great job Ben. By the way I sent you a PM.

[Unimoger]

Thanks guys, well I only have 3 left, WOW, you guys are fast with the paypal.

MSD shop

[chino63]

nice job! can't wait to see one completed and on the rocks!:lol:

[Unimoger]

Thanks Chino, won't be long, I think they are going to start poping up everywhere.:lol:

[Trikster]

Too bad you don't offer discounts to poor, starving, married with two kids, college students...(all of the above is true, believe it or not). I would love one. Perhaps I could offer some web work (or Photoshop work if you already have a web guy) as trade?

Here is some of my web/Photoshop work... Needs the Shockwave plugin from Macromedia

http://www.woodardway.com/dswmedia/vitruvian.htm

Here is another one of my talents, Quicktime VR's (the above example is a VR without Quicktime, if you want more info I can trade PM's with you). This one requires Shockwave and QuickTime 7+

http://www.woodardway.com/dswmedia/vrsForSSO.htm

I designed all the navigation and Flash elements in this site. Not all of the links work (the content loader person flaked on us at the last minute) Shockwave and Quicktime 7+ required

http://www.sacspecialops.org/specialOpsMedium.htm (there is a larger, higher quality version out there, but very few of the links work, our guy totally flaked on the large one)

[exesivefire]

so.. bb-51..

i assume that stands for

barnyard buster 51 but im not sure the significance of the number 51?

[Unimoger]

so.. bb-51..

either way i got one... :twisted:


well it took 5 revisions of the original barnyard buster, the final one was this production, 5.1 , there are 5 build threads of our tester's, so 51 is the # we landed at, nothing special.

Can't wait to see your build exesive, gonna be sick I am sure.;-)

[Unimoger]

[Unimoger]

which chassis do u recommend Option 1 or Option 2 can someone help me plz


only difference is the inboard shock rail.

if you plan to mount the shocks all 4 upright, no need, but if you want more shock and suspension travel, go for the inboard rail."thumbsup"

[mobil1syn]

Brendan, I have yours ready, send me a PM"thumbsup"

[minifaron]

I would like to ask a couple of questions please. I have built many a RC KIT; however I have never really built one from scratch, or so to speak. I want to buy a Crawler Chassis however I am not sure what is right for what I want to do. I know I want a scale look, but I am not clear as what else I will need after I buy your kit. In other words will your kit come with directions as to what other parts I will need? The electrics are a no brainer. I have plenty of cash, but I don’t want to buy things that are stupid. Please help a newbie, and don’t grip me out!
Ohh yea, can I use a RC4WD2 Tranny in this? What kind of Axles do I need, and do you sell a Alum set with gears. (Or is that stupid?)
Thank you in advance!
MINIFARON

[Unimoger]

Thanks for the ?'s minifaron,

Most of our customers build the BB-51 chassis with the TLT kit, there are several vendors here who sell them. Next, you can use any transmission you wish, most have used the pede or the stealth, however, some have used the r2 from rc4wd. We do not sell the axles, sorry. You will need driveshafts, shocks, body, linkage, wheels and tires. We do provide in our #1 kit, the link mounts for the tlt axle's also.

If you have any other ?'s, feel free to PM me.

also, here are a few build threads for you to look at:

Guys, I have only 14 chassis kits left, I will not be making anymore until after nationals. If you are a repeat customer I have a special price for you, also have special nationals pricing too. PM me for details. If you wanted to build a killer scale rig, now is your chance and the BB-51 is your chassis. "thumbsup" Thanks for all the wonderful support from all of my rcc customers.

[Unimoger]

Holy cow, :shock: what a great response, thanks guys, only have a few left if anyone else wants to do a scale build before nationals, PM me right away.;-)

thanks for all the orders guys."thumbsup"

[Mini]

Are there any pics of a fully build chassis with out the body covering all the goodies? I have a complete spare fit of and ax10 and wanted to know if I can swap it to this chassis? Thanks."thumbsup"

[slobin3d]

Are there any pics of a fully build chassis with out the body covering all the goodies? I have a complete spare fit of and ax10 and wanted to know if I can swap it to this chassis? Thanks."thumbsup"The chassis was built way before the AX10 was out, there for it wasn't built to be a bolt on chassis. You could adapt it to fit like any other though. As a side note the BB-51 is not currently being made since the UTE has been announced and it is shorty going to be out for sale.

[Mini]

Thanks "thumbsup"

[exesivefire]

Here are a couple pics anyway bud, you can still find them poping up used every now and then, will always be one of my favs "thumbsup"

My bb-51 has had a few face lifts in the last year or so and this chassis kicks ass! Well built and can take some abuse! It started life as a bronco and then a hummer for my son and now wears the "RARE" hilux body. :lmao:

I finally got the 4ws on there, both servos chassis mounted. makes for a hell of a cat chaser in the house!:twisted:
