Default Another addition to the Blackjack Army

Have had a blackjack chassis just sitting on the bench for about a month waiting to decide what axles to use under it. since my new rockracer will be using tlt axles I decided to tear apart the old racer and throw the AX10 axles under this. right now i'm just waiting on my revo shocks to get here
I had to chop away at the chassis a little bit to get the r2d/bm9 in there. if the bm9 ends up not working out for me i'll end up narrowing the chassis and hanging a team brood 40t motor out the side of it.


specs:
WB 12 1/4"
GC 3 1/8"
bj chassis
ax10 axles, most of the goodies installed
R2d tranny
mg645 dig servo
jr9100 steering servo
jps pro wheels
panther cougars
CC Sidewinder
CC BEC
spektrum tx/rx
bm9 motor

got the revo shocks and got it all assembled. ran it droop for a little bit and it worked good. got some internal springs and am running a 50/50 shock setup and like it a lot.

Added some Delrin links from http://xtreme-rc-hobbies.net/
also got some mayhem dp's.

running the panther tires with 2 memory foams in each rear tire and 1 memory foam sandwiched between slices of stock axial foams in the fronts.

I also didn't like the droop setup so i got some springs from ace that fit the revo shocks perfect. i'm sitting at 3 1/16" gc.

here are some up to date pics
