I always wondered is it possible to trainwreck a trainwrecker

BTW nice looking chassis and setup Franky.

Nice looking chassis.

Look forward to hearing how the performace is with the new axles under it.

FrankyRizzo · 08-21-2007, 05:14 PM

I got the lower links done. They are actually the same length as the ones I am using on my TLT platform with the fat rock C's.

I should have the upper links done tonight.

FrankyRizzo · 08-22-2007, 10:12 AM

Well I ditched the upper link mounts. I ended up using the three link setup that comes stock. Looks way cool and cleaner. I mounted the shocks as well. I will throw up some pics this afternoon.

Brandon · 08-22-2007, 10:19 AM

Looks great! Are you using the same shocks as the tlt version or going with something different?

FrankyRizzo · 08-22-2007, 10:27 AM

Same shocks. I just removed the outer spring because it does no good anyways.

dirk379 · 08-22-2007, 10:27 AM

Wow rizzo those h.c. links are saweeet. The curved style links are probably much for affective than the bent to an angle links. You can most likely slide up/off/over obstacles better and not get stuck in the kink of the link, brilliant idea! :thumbsup:

Agree it looks better with the 3-link. Killer build, what body you going to run?

braceysdad · 08-22-2007, 10:31 AM

Would I be correct in assuming that you are running a 45/55 set up since the front links are bent a little different than the rears?

FrankyRizzo · 08-22-2007, 10:32 AM

Those HC links were actually a mistake. I made them in a vice bending them in 2 spots. I don't like how they look. I like the ones on my TLT version better with just 1 bend. I will make another set when I finalize the build. These were in a bin so I just threw them on to see how it would look.

I appreciate the compliment though.

As far as body goes I might do a Hello Kitty pink stadium truck style body. Not sure yet.

Nope 50/50

FrankyRizzo · 08-22-2007, 11:11 PM

Here are some pics as a roller.

I am really digging the three link rear.

braceysdad · 08-23-2007, 07:52 AM

Looks cool, have you narrowed the wheels or, are they already that narrow?

chip cross · 08-23-2007, 07:55 AM

I just have the tires in the middles or the rims just for mock up purposes. I will be narrowing them soon though.

I mocked them up with no rings. The Pentas are waiting trust me. If you notice one wheel is chrome and that one has the Penta on it.
