The build is a good one .but you were a little cocky with some of your post.

But who am I to say.

Dutch Crawler · 08-21-2008, 05:12 PM

Looks very clean and Hi-Tech i like it ^^

Those Proline tyres you got on it are those M3 of M2 compound? Which one do you prefer?

Robbob · 08-21-2008, 08:02 PM

curious since i havent tried it yet but what would the benefits be of running the upper links on the outside of the frame as opposed to inside?

iv still got mine on the inside since it moves the front shocks in and helps me not rub the front tires on steering lock to lock.

The only reason I don't have them inside the chassis is because the wont be PERFECTLY straight, and the way I have everything stuffed in there, if the links where inside the chassis they would hit everything.

The Proline Badlands are M2 compound, The M3 seems to be to soft.

This chassis is good. I finally got to run mine and it works well. I am running a setup sort of like Tanis with Losi 4" shocks, and double triangulated links. I like it so far, I did not lose anything from my previous setup and now I can setup the truck more easily for ground clearance or slam it back down for smoother rocks.

I'll start a thread and post some pics soon..

A little update. I wanted to try some different shocks so I called Keith at RCSLOT.com and ordered up some losi .9" shocks

Thanks Keith

yotachump · 08-28-2008, 02:19 PM

Got the shocks set up to 3.464" long eye to eye. When assembling them use the biggest spacer it comes with.

dpdsurf · 08-28-2008, 02:28 PM

What is the I2I on the revo shocks?

With Revos and these shocks how is the flex compared to a stock AX10?

Thanks!

Thanks!

Eye to Eye on the Revo's = 3.425"
Eye to Eye on the Losi's = 3.464"

Even though the Revo's are only .039" shorter the Losi's still have .95" more travel.

Flex compared to a stock AX10 is PROBABLY about half If I can remember right. Its been SO LONG since ive seen a STOCK AX10 .

Going to have your truck done by this weekend? I think Ill be headed to SF this weekend

Yes I will be out there. I'm waiting on my revo shocks from ebay show up. Either way I will improvise with something. Tonight I will be finished with all but the shocks. I love how small and light the chassis is! Top quality on the skid plate too!

Just post the day and time you think you can make it on the SSF thread. Doug's 10 minutes away and I'm about 20.

yotachump · 08-28-2008, 04:26 PM

Here a couple of pics with the new shocks.

Tanis · 08-28-2008, 05:48 PM

Looks good with the new shocks on there Anthony

LIKES2CRAWL · 08-28-2008, 08:32 PM

How close do the tires come to the shocks with them mounted way outside like that? The .9's look good on there.
