I thought that stuff in the background looked familiar.

Are you coming to Nats with any of these sweet toy trucks of yours?

[TEDROCKZ]

Not looking positive right now Tom! Never made any definite plans. I may come out to hang out Saturday and Sunday. Changed jobs back in the spring and really can't dictate my off days like before. New company new rules

[sourdojack]

I hear ya there!
I just started a new job in March. For once my manager is great about letting me take time off, but it's all unpaid. No vacation time till next year!!

This build looks fantastic by the way! How far did you limit your shocks internally?

Thanks and there is no limiters so far. Most likely going to shorten some Eggressor style up some soon.

That's a good idea

Finally getting around to finishing this thing. Got busy with other stuff and my toys got put on the back burner for a while. Everything should be here this week to finish it.

Few parts come in today


Trans finished. Duratrax 32p 56t spur with Robinson 11t pinion


Steering mocked and Ti ordered for it. Was gonna do a behind the axle set up but this is up and out of the way enough IMO.



Got the MIP shafts in and don't really like them so I just hit Eddie@ C.I. for a Maxx shaft set up. Should be here in a day or so.
RX should be here tomorrow according to shipping info then I'll everything to get it wired and cranked!
Waiting on the CreeperBob rear shafts also, which should be ready soon.


Got a cool body in the works for it also.

No shit, Steve.

Have you thought about running Twin Hammers drive shafts?
They are pretty strong and small diameter

Never thought of them! I'll get some on the way to see what they'll do. I can always put them on one of my cheap scalers if they can't cut it on the comp rig.

they have been on my 2.2s truck since I built it. I have never broke or twisted one

I have been running wraith drive shafts with lots of power without issue. Glue a piece of CF tubing into the male end and it has been pretty strong.
