Default My 2008 P.A.R.C. Comp Rig

I just completed an extensive reconstruction of my AX-10 for the upcoming P.A.R.C. comp season.
Here is a list of parts and suppliers used to complete my re-build.

TCS Tranny skid
TCS High clearance links
TCS Aluminum upper link/servo mount
TCS Aluminum Boomerang
TCS Aluminum axle plates
TCS 8cell split battery pack
Integy alloy main chassis from TCS
Integy MSR10 shocks from RPP
RC4WD Aluminum Knuckles and C's from TCS
RC4WD Straight axle adaptor and Axles
Imex Rubicons (soft) from TCS
Hot-Racing wheels from CKRCCrawler
Hitec 5645 servo from TCS
Rooster Crawler/Fiftyfive combo from RCP
Airtronics MX-3S radio from Hobby People
And last but not least dig set-up using design by Miniwheeler.

Thanks to all the great friends, posts and vendors that made this build possible.

Nice build. I dig the chassis. IT looks like only 1 hole for the upper links to mount in the chassis, is that what I'm seeing?

Thanks...It actually has 11 holes to mount the upper links to...6 holes in the lower stock point where I have mine mounted and 5 in the back position where a lot of guys have been drilling holes in the stock chassis.

Foot in Mouth! I should've seen that. It helps to liik more than once I guess.

I am running the stock heavy springs with 30wt oil in all but the left rear which I am running 80wt in to help with tork twist.

They are the same width but the off-set gives you 1/2" more track width.

I filled the shocks up to the second from last spring and that seemed to work fine.

Had to make a few changes to the truck after some testing. The new Cirrus 190oz servo was getting too hot so switched it out for a Hitec 5645mg. I also replaced the Novak XRS esc and Inetgy 55 lathe motor with the Novak Rooster Crawler and FiftyFive motor combo. Works much better now.
