No problem man, I actually got done with my part of the move im just waiting for work to start

boosted4lyf · 04-29-2013, 05:03 PM

Started on front uppers.
grabbed some aluminum stock drilled and tapped to 4mm
With the Revo rod ends eye2eye length is 81 mm.

boosted4lyf · 05-01-2013, 12:54 AM

Got bored. Rollers done te to cut down some shocks

boosted4lyf · 05-01-2013, 04:47 PM

Got the titanium idler shaft and slipper eliminator shaft installed
I think aside from a different transmission case I can pretty much call this one built

With the front shocks I replaced the shafts with a shaft from a 3 inch shock and removed just under a half inch from the shock body itself.
Internally limited 7 mm
Externally limited 3 mm
Losi mini t green springs
25WT oil

Since the chassis was meant to have a raked stance I didn't cut the shocks down in the rear
Internally limited 9 mm
Externally limited 3 mm
Losi Mini t blue Springs
25 WT oil

Also got my front drive line cut down and everything slapped back together
Wait as of right now is 3 lbs. 14oz.
That's including a body the knuckle weights and the weights inside of the dirty Harry's.
I'm sure I could be down to almost 3 pounds even if I removed all that weight

Ground clearance at highest point on the skid is 3 inches lowest point is 2.75 inches

boosted4lyf · 05-01-2013, 04:55 PM

Maybe. Maybe not. Probably not.

BUT....I know a sideburned bandito outta Tejas that'll make a shaft outta aloombynumb.

boosted4lyf · 05-01-2013, 05:07 PM

Ya he does. But he's not here often I can pick one up for ya Saturday if ya want.

Illeagle · 05-01-2013, 05:11 PM

Looking good Steve. That thing has got to be close to 30/70. The front shaft length is super short like JD's.................. attention span. With the links being so short in the front does it still articulate fine and no shaft binding or anything?

He did a run of 50 I believe so he probably still has a few.

boosted4lyf · 05-01-2013, 05:12 PM

Forgot to add this one earlier Cut shock next to Stock shock
