Got to a stopping point...need paint...cannot go further without it . Guess that it'll have to wait till next year. I was able to scrounge up some spare Axial grey post to lengthen the rear uppers so that I could use my Axial 4-Link. They ended up being 100mm long. It's a perfect length for perfect pinion angle. I also added some Pro-Line PowerStroke shocks. Other than that, nothing out to ordinary. I am still undecided on paint :?. Today I ordered another HH BR-XL waterproofed ESC and a HH 30T TorqueMaster Pro HW Motor. Should have it middle first of next week, hopefully. Flex shot |

Got my winch mounted tonight. I decided to go a different route and used a delrin fairlead that I have had for a while. |

I like the delrin fairlead. Did you say BR-XL and HHH 30t . That will be a fast power house. Don't tell me it will be on 4s .

Got my Rok Loks put on...waiting on my 5th one for the spare from RPP. It is a little tight in the hole in the bed but it'll work, doesn't look too bad. I just like the matching spare look. I installed the Axial 43/13 Optional Gear set in the rear and a Yeah Racing light kit from TCS. I have another complete set for the body after it's painted. I will just cut the reds off. All electronics have been installed. The electronics box is packed full. When you open the top it's like the old school prank can with the snake in it...open the top and thing jumps out at you. I have the winch controller, SR3100 Spektrum receiver, servo lead spliter (running lights and winch off the bat port) and other excess wires. I added some rock lights up front. I have removed the cross brace, so I just mounted them to the small hole that the tit set in. I had to drill it out a bit for a screw to go through it. I originally used the same hole as the cross brace but the tires hit the light at full lock and the shocks fully compressed. I was gonna mount some rock lights in the rear but the Yeah Racing kit only has 2 reds and 4 whites and I wanted the body to have it's own strand on a separate battery. I don't like to unplug wires when removing the body. I might later splice in the rear light leads and add some. So far I am happy to say that the wiring on this build is, by far, my neatest....yay me! On to the pics: Last edited by constantmotion; 01-02-2010 at 03:33 PM. |
