We'll see where this goes.

Axial Exo cage shortened on 12" WB SCX

1/8" rod to rejoin the exo graft with epoxy. Did this on the IFS Wraith build. Stole that "pin" idea from JIA.

Thats different .... but very cool. Axial should take note.

Szczerba · 07-13-2013, 10:34 AM

Thanks.
I have seen one other rig with the full exo cage on top. I didnt want the 13"+ wheelbase.
Thing about the exo cage is you can drill 3/32" hole anywhere and add screws to attach pther chassis grafts.

Saw this part on the bench (rear part of exo cage) and it "kinda" ties the front together. Ill have to cut some excess off.

Looking good Shane.

Thanks. Like I said, we'll see where it goes. I have Exo parts, wraith parts and SCX parts.
Speaking of Wraith. The rear wraith section
Cut and moved to the front of this rig. Ill have to tie it in.

Szczerba · 07-13-2013, 01:45 PM

Hack, drill, screw.
Little more work up front. Sliders on.

I like it!

I'm not crazy about the EXO hood only because it makes it look like an EXO, but everything else is very cool

I'm not sure what panels ill be using. Everything is still in mock up mode. Still digging through my SCX, EXO and Wraith parts bins for various setups.

Szczerba · 07-13-2013, 04:54 PM

Ride height adjustment.

cmbscx10 · 07-13-2013, 05:18 PM

Wow. Great idea on the cage and that looks plain awesome.

Looking mean

I'll be following this!

THUNDER PRO · 07-13-2013, 06:35 PM

I like it a lot. Wriath,SCX,ECO,all coming together very well. I'll keep watching to see how it all turns out. Very nice so far.

Ohioskills · 07-13-2013, 06:53 PM

i like that a lot ima sub this

Szczerba · 07-13-2013, 08:56 PM

Thanks guys. More work will be done tomorrow. Going to add a wraith piece to the back end to have the spare tire angled down.

I really liked the way I was able to tie the SCX sliders into the Exo cage. I didn't want to have to weld any parts on this chassis. Just use existing pieces I have in the parts bins.

I may weld some new upper link mounts to the SCX frame.

Jus · 07-14-2013, 07:55 AM

Very creative! I look forward to seeing where you go with it.

Calderwood · 07-14-2013, 08:07 AM

Seriously cool. Way to think outside the box.

Thanks guys. Staring at it now trying to figure out how I want to setup the rear chassis for a spare tire mount. And how to add some more support to the front

monkeyracer · 07-14-2013, 08:13 AM

Looking good. Should be lightweight and unique. Love it.
