A little bit too late but.... This is how i tried to keep sand and other shit outside of axle.   I greased those foams first with gunoil and then little 'watergreas'. These pics are from my Formula offroad truck. But i did it same way on my scaler. |

When are the new 1.9 ripsaw comp spec rubber rubber tires gunna be released? How tall will they be? I like your old 1.9 spec honcho w/ rok lock 1.9S bad azz truck. Try Mobil 1 synthetic grease in your axles.

Got a few action shots last night. Need to tweak the suspension just a bit to soften it up, but it is fun to drive with that extra width. Link: http://axialracing.com/wordpress/201...-action-shots/     Last edited by BENDER; 07-20-2011 at 03:35 PM. | |

There are no other major issues with this build, driveshaft angles will end up steep, unless you spin the transmission or flip the axles. But, I think there will be issues clearing the upper links with the driveshafts in line with the transmission outputs. Also, flip the shock and link brackets on the axles upside down to keep ride height reasonable with standard 100mm comp shocks. Quote:

Brad , 1 beat jeep asked (when is this coming out?) ..... wroncho release? Are you using a wraith or scx10/ax10 trans? Im workin on gettin parts for mine. Got most everything. Setting a honcho body on top of the bottom of a wraith, the wheelbase appears shorter than the wraith???? |

Just read through the whole thread. Really irritated with myself for not doing this earlier. Thanks for documenting the build, gave me plenty of ideas for my own honcho!
