|  Greatscott's SWX (Finished at last!!!)
Finally finished my SWX chassis.  It went together pretty well, fit and finish of the kit are top-notch, but it was not a simple bolt on kit. -The ball-links rubbed causing just a little bit of binding, a couple of minor mods and it was all better. -If you are mounting up a dig that has a built-in dig servo bracket you should be fine, but I'm running a HR dig, so I had to fabricate my own bracket. -I was expecting to get creative to mount the dig servo, but I wasn't expecting to have to be creative when mounting the body.   Front body mount  Rear body mount  This thing is slick as snot on the rocks and is a lot better than the stock chassis... Now I just need to get rid of the green steering links. |

Looks good Scott. When I was running my SWX I used the standard servo from the front for the dig servo and it worked great. For the tie rod I would recommend 5/16th inch delrin.  Last edited by treday619; 03-08-2010 at 11:04 PM. | |
