looking for a good comp tuber

[cruz*hotboxrc]

looking to buy a good comp tuber for my ax -10...some thing real sick looking.. throw me some ideas

[chevy42083]

Most of the mass produced ones are pretty plain IMO... no style, definatly not "sick looking". You can try the "edge", available from many of the vedor's stores on here. It's the only common one I've seen with style. Past that, just check the vendor section, and the classifieds to see if someone's one-off chassis is for sale, or hire someone to build it... or build it yourself.

thumbs down to the edge chassis..
just some tube stuck on an axial like chassis..IMO

there are a lot out there made by a bunch of different venders
but yet to see a perfect one
most are not square or shock and link holes are not in the same location
i have looked for about a year to find one that is done right...
i did end up with one that looks cool but found out on the build that things did line up the same
my shock mounts were too thin and week..
soo choose carefully
and you will still have do some work to it>>>>IMO

Seening them in person, and owning one, are 2 different things.

Sure a few of the holes are off, but on my DCV/pro they are at the front of the front mounting brackets, which are not used, the shock mounting holes, front / back are all aligned perfectly straight, the entire tube chassis is straight.

If you want to see some upclose pics, look at my build thread, titled AX10 to DCV/pro Transformation.

What chassis is this, and where can you get one?

[Stallion1967]

^that would be the fatdog. If you like that you should checkout the rc4wd copperhead chassis. its a little spendy but it is awesome looking.

[Mortimer Snerd]

A sense of your budget would be helpful, as would more info about what kind of truck you're looking for (droop vs. sprung, preferred terrain, etc.)

[cruz*hotboxrc]

droop...and willing to spend about 180.00....that fat dog is tight

[fuctup]

This one is pretty sick looking, and right in your price range

DMG Alluminite/Pro

a couple of different designs available check this thread for info

Death Metal Garage

i like my edge, and as for quality, everything mounts up perfect and things arent "off". good quality and great price.
