creepin dingo heres a few updates on one of my new projects, an axial scx10 dingo i got through a trade:) ive been wanting one of these platforms for awhile now and am completely stoked on the one i came across. as of now it has an axial ae-2 esc, a brushed axial 27t, i intsalled some traxxas halfshafts i got from my LHS and they work almost perfect, it originally had the 1.9 ripsaws on it but i replaced them with the 2.2 pitbulls off my LNC and they work like a charm:mrgreen: http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/HJJ.jpg can you say.. flex? haha :ror: http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/iun.jpg mock up of blazer body http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/TH.jpg blazer body mounted http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/ert.jpg list of some parts to come: Gmade scale shocks rc4wd white steelies junfac steel driveshafts new 27t might convert my receiver from the axial A-3 to a team associated XP3-ss but still debating also lookin into some t-rex 60 axles but we'll see8) anyways, thanks for takin a look, just figured id share my new rig :mrgreen: have a good one fellas! |

Re: creepin dingo http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...klife/oioh.jpg almost forgot, i added a bed and lights the other night too. |
Re: creepin dingo finally got me some g made ts01 shocks n cant wait to put em on :mrgreen: http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/ew.jpg for the hell of it today tho i went ahead and put back on the 1.9s just to see how the stance/ability is and i must say it did quite well. i also mocked up the K5 body up to it and was hoping i could get some opinions on whether i should go with the 1.9s or stick with the 2.2s? http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/tr.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/ds.jpg im diggin the way it looks and stands but i dont want to feel like i spent $50 for no reason on the 2.2 pitbulls at the same time haha. more opinions from more experienced crawlers tho would help me push along to the right decisions "thumbsup" |
I like the 1.9s better. They look more scale on the K5. But save the 2.2s for another body, like maybe the 2dr Wrangler JK, it has bigger fenders. That's what I did. I have lots of bodies and tires to switch it up once in a while. |
Re: creepin dingo Yeah see that's why I was likin em too, 1.9s just look way more scale than the 2.2s. Thanks for the input man, now I don't feel as bad about leaving the 2.2s off haha. Will post more pics soon after the bodies mounted n the wheels are weighted "thumbsup" |
Re: creepin dingo stayed up till 4 in the morning the other night trying to get this body mounted perfect n finally came out with the results i wanted 8) also put some weights in the wheels all the way around, now i just need to get these beastly lookin g mades on!!! :twisted: http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/dc.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/hgj.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/ty.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/hvb.jpg |
Re: creepin dingo finally assembled and installed the gmades and i must say they probably look better than gods vagina haha :ror: heres a pic of them all assembled n ready to go http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/eer.jpg stock axials in comparison to ts01's http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...klife/iuiu.jpg installed on chassis http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/vbn.jpg flex shots :) http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/jh.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/jbb.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/iuj.jpg hope you all enjoy so far "thumbsup" |
Re: creepin dingo got more work done on the k5 "thumbsup" as you can see in the pics i removed the backhalf part, cut out the tailgate, added a spare tire and some accessories, and also found a way to mount up a proline roof rack so it looks like a headache rack 8) http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...orklife/op.jpg http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rklife/hgv.jpg soon to come is a roll cage and interior "thumbsup" |
