ya i will when i get home. i got 2 TSL's mounted on wheels, the beads are popping out and stuff but oh well. i'll run them like that for now and then get some wheel weights when my other wheels come in.

thanks. i did a write up of how i made them and posted it in the "tools and procedure" section if your interested in making a set. now that i have 2.2's the snow chains and the flat irons are going to be for winter use only.

AX10wannabe · 04-10-2011, 10:18 PM

there's no updates on the honcho lately, just havent had time to work on it, been working on my crawler course last week and this weekend i helped my dad clean out the goat pens and worked on my racing mowers. i sold one of mine to my cousin so i had to show him how to put it back together (needed some parts bolted back on) and i bought another one so i had to toss a battery in that and work on my other one and change out the rear sprocket.

AX10wannabe · 04-14-2011, 09:51 AM

so went into lester's hobbies yesterday to pick up my wheels i ordered a month ago and i find out that they bring in 6hole wheels for an XR10. lester wasnt there so the guy that was working that day called lester and he said that they would fit a honcho, but its not the rims i wanted so i didnt buy them. i grabbed a brand new AX10 off the shelf and showed the guy the rims i want and gave him my name, phone number and the part number again so hopefully they get these damn wheels in soon.

9700trevor · 04-14-2011, 10:09 PM

that sucks man when were you in town?
I am looking at getting some electronics ordered for my ax10 looking at the Tekin FXR crawler system lots od tuning options on this unit and you can get a computer program to do more tuning

AX10wannabe · 04-24-2011, 08:49 AM

well i finally did something with my crawler, my plastic servo horn wasnt gripping the servo so i got a friend to grab me a metal one. we swapped servo's (now running my HS 645mg) and the metal servo horn. i got the other 2 wheels and tires mounted and tossed them on and finally got a chance to run my new TSL's... they are AWESOME!!!!!!!!

trimmed up the honcho body so i could have a skid lid to run. took it for a test drive on my course and it only rubbed once i might still trim a little off the headlights so it has no chance of rubbing.

here's the pictures. i'll grab some today when i go crawling...

thats the same container that i flexed on with my 1.9's. i was also looking and thinking about the honcho and i think im going to make some inner fenderwells just to cover up the wires and stuff.

AX10wannabe · 04-24-2011, 10:48 AM

did a little crawling this morning before breakfast. i love these tires. today im going to trim a little more of the body (the headlights rub a little bit) and going to mount my winch to my bumper i made a while ago.

9700trevor · 04-25-2011, 10:53 AM

looks good thought the head light would still rub but better to tke less than too much

AX10wannabe · 04-25-2011, 11:23 AM

ya thats what i thought too... i cut it on the line that you drew then took the sanding wheel and smoothed out the cuts. think im going to make some inner fenderwells though just to hide the wires and stuff and make it more realistic.

also got some action shots yesterday and i posted them in my course thread.

9700trevor · 04-25-2011, 12:55 PM

truck and course look good glad to see you are making progress on them can't wait to see that winch mounted
