Default How do I Honcho a Dingo?

Found this out after I got the truck, that the Dingo is shorter then the Honcho. How can I get the wheel base of a Honcho or even make it 13"?

Thanks guys

Cheers

You'll need longer drive shafts also. And obviously the Dingo body will no longer fit. Other than that though I think it's a fairly simple "conversion".

You don't need longer drive shafts because they use the same drive shafts!!!

The parts list you will need to do a honcho. I did not give part numbers for the honcho bumpers or drive shafts. This is what you wiil need to do the rear suspension. I dont know if u have a kit or a rtr but if you have a dingo kit you will need to by the bolts nuts and lower 130mm link. hope this helps. If you whant to run the 13in wheelbase you can use the rear honcho links on the front and 4link the front axle. You will need to do the sterring mod to put the servo on the frame. link at bottom for servo mod


Axial paet numbers needed
AX80043
AX80054
AX80018
AXA434
AXA121
AXA1052

Really??? Why does the kit come with a long and a short version? And the mip's are offered in either honcho version or dingo version? Makes sense to me that if you have a longer wheelbase you'd need longer drive shafts......

Axial sets ther truck up with the long shaft in the dingo.Take the shaft halfs the more spline engagement you have it will make it harder to twist the shaft. One shaft is reinforcing the other shaf. But more dead space you have the easier it is to do this.


This is the shaft frome the front of my dingo and was only run for about 1 day. I put it into my boys creepr cuz his was worn out and dropped a pin.

You can run the shorter ones in the dingo, however the long ones work also. I personally run the longer ones in my dingo.

This might help you out.

Cheap Stock drive shaft upgrade

I have done this to both my rig and my sons and No longer have that issue.
