This is why I don't have nice things.

The interference is the Krazed arms. They stick out further, and more towards the inside bead than the stock Vanquish arms. I like the steering they provide, and at 12 bucks, plus 35 for the knuckles, they beat out the price on the DLUX's. Trust me, if I wanted to stay married happily, I would buy those damn knuckles.... wait... if I didn't want to be ... damnit.

So yeah. Christmas list was sent to the department of homeland tranquility. It includes yet another order to the Eric.

I'm an instigator for sure. In the group I run with 3 of us have dropped an easy $1500 in the last year and we're set to drop another $500 before the year is out. Mr dlux is why we have nice things.



As long as you're there you might as well step up to 8mm stubs ya know...

I've got a bag that weighs more than two pounds of old 1/8 scale driveshafts... I'm already eye-ballin the FBA shafts for ole Comptastic. Let alone this rig.

I'm building this one for my son!!! Damnit. You're right.

I gotta put the order in for more wheels from Eric, so the knucks are gonna be on their way as well. The weight, the options, the carbonny graphitey goodness!!!

That's gonna put me over 300 bucks, .... damn. 400 bucks just in this post alone. My wife hates you.

My friends wimmins hate me too so I'll just mark another in that column.


As long as you're there you may as well do aluminum knuckles on your rig with brass dice holders. Get that weight down loooow. That's what I run on the main rig. My secondary rig has full brass (steering arms & lower plates and knuckles) since it's a play rig more like your sons.

Scale Designs International makes a very nice drive shaft and lightweight super strong.

So... this kind of took a turn.... into another direction. Looks like Santa is bringing me some nice Clod wheels and tires, and a beefy topshaft, and a RRP slash 56t slipper, and a 550 3300KV Tekin brushless system, and.... and.... and.... Thanks Santa!

Axial Deadbolt/Ridgecrest AX10 chassis. Requires a little modifications, but not much. You can completely bolt on the Yeti rear upper and lower links and get an extra inch of wheelbase.

I'm keeping this one a little shorter for now, with the stock links for a Ridgecrest/Deadbolt.
