|  My Reign J2-TT / Axial AX-10 Build Well I finally got a chance to build up a J2-TT Chassis with some AX-10 Scorpion axles and trany. (Yeah all you guys that sent me PMs about a AX-10 build up here it is.  )I decided to build up a belly dragger. (well I had some 3.5" shocks laying around so... what the he11). Here is a parts list: - Reign Products J2-TT Chassis - Axial AX-10 Scorpion (I used the axles, trany, top link, steel yokes, drivelines, & a few other goodies, nuts & bolts) - (4 ea) Traxxas 3.5" shocks - (2 ea) Traxxas Revo pushrod part #5318 or #5318X (Front links) http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXHFV8&P=Z - (2 ea) Traxxas Revo pushrod part #5319 or 5319X (Rear links) http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXHFW0&P=Z - (4 ea) Associated RC10 T4 Turnbucles part #7101 (top links) http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXFDU8&P=Z - (4 ea) Traxxas Rod Ends w/Connectors part # 2742 http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXJG69&P=Z You may have noticed the shorter front links. I wasn't intending to do a 60/40 set-up it just so happens these are the links I need to use to still be under the legal wheel base limit of 12.5" It is at 12 3/8" with this set-up. Here are some picks: |

No it isn't a droopy, per say. More of a sag/droop... Like my tuber is set/up, low articulation, and a low belly. It will droop but it will also compress. I'll be tweaking on it to see what does best in the long run. | ||

| All right, all right... I mounted up the shocks last night and this morning I tossed some dirty wheels & a bashed old body on and shot a few pics. I'm still working on the shocks/springs/oil set-up & will probably use different rims/tires because the ericksons are for the comp tuber. |

| will this perform better than a regular ax-10? looks awsome, but also looks very similar to the stock form. did you just want it custom built? |

| Looks great Pinchflat. What is the belly clearance? And also, it looks like the top of the chassis is just below the tires, is this true? Shane |

I built this J2-TT/AX-10 because I have had ALOT of PMs asking for a build up with the Reign J2-TT chassis with AX-10 Axles & trany. Also to give people ideas to what can be done with these new axles & trany. Quote:
