| Finally got it running again
Well it has been a while since I have done any work on the comanche. I have been busy the past few months. But anyway here are some pics of the new improved truck. I put a rc4wd 35T motor in it , some integy 118mm shock , a handy bros steering kit , and added 6 oz. weight to the front and rear tires. I also got the floor pan in and put a traxxas vxl-3s waterproof esc in it. I have the interior from team3six , I just need to figure out how to fit it and all my electronics together and still keep the electronics waterproofed. Here are some pics of her in action. This thing is a beast!!!!!! |

Nice rig man! I really like the Commanche and Cherokee bodies from ProLine! I recently picked up the XJ (Cherokee) body for my rig. Check out the pic below... You can see the shocks I used which are RC4WD 110mm scale shocks... They give it a perfect ride height and work awesome! Keep up the good work and keep us up to date!! |

| Made a few more upgrades
Got an aluminum links kit , a winch , and a dh fab. front bumper. here are a few pics and a video of my testing on some firewood. I am really surprised at the difference all these mods have made in the way this truck performs. I kinda wish I would have bought the kit version of the honcho to start with since I have basically scrapped the rtr version. Oh well though I have learned so much over the last six months building this truck , and I am sure I will find some more to do to it still. Thanks for all the help from everyone this site has been a lifesaver , I wouldn't have even known where to start without it. Now I just need everyone around casper to stop ***** footin around so I can kick some ass at a scale ttc event. Sorry couldn't get the video on here but this is a link to it at photobucket http://s1111.photobucket.com/albums/...t=100_0152.mp4 Last edited by pwarren1515; 08-16-2011 at 12:48 AM. |
