Proline Jeep Cherokee Wheelbase

SCX10 wheelbase is 290mm

Proline Jeep Cherokee Wheelbase is 300mm

I have a SCX10 Honcho, what pipes would I need?

[nmanuel01]

im guessing 10mm more than what you have know

The builds I have seen so far have used the stock SCX10 (original kit and TR length, not honcho) wheelbase and the body. There is one that used the TR fender flares which looked good as well.

lol had to quote this. Honcho is at 313mm wheelbase. Reading > YOU

But on a serious note, I can't find 6 x 91 mm pipes on towerhobbies. where do you guys buy extra 6 x 91 mm pipes.

[passinby]

rpp has them

If you need 10mm more than the short wheelbase scx10, then it seems like 96mm+ would be ideal, maybe a little extra because it's at an angle.... might take 12mm longer in links to get 10mm at the wheelbase.

There are 6x100mm AX10 links on ebay for cheap. I'm not sure about the lengths for the 3 or 4link though, your pinion angles would suck if you only changed the lowers.

Here are the 91mm links at RPP....http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/ax30524.htm

You can change the length of your PIPES by changing the rod ends longer or shorter, it's a easy fix.


FYI the "PIPES" are called LINKS. That might be why you couldnt find any on tower.

tower calls them pipes, I bought 106mm pipes when I got a truss.

Thanks a ton, I was wondering why I couldn't find them in the catalog. But it seems like they have every size but the stock 91mm.

RPP named them pipes too. They are still links to me, though.
