I like your new project, I'm sure you'll make it look as nice as your CR01's.

Not sure of the wheelbase, but it think it's standard. So I decided to start striping it down for a rebuild. Man this thing was dirty Looks like someone tried to re-enforce the steering link. Looks like all the grease ran out of the tranny, full rebuild there... More a little later... |

I am planning to 4 link the front too, the 3 link is worn out badly. For the rebuild, I'll use the kit plastic links, but my mate will be making the links from aluminum.

Started by striping down the front axle Not going to bore you all, sure you've seen 100 Axial axle builds. But here is the completed axle with 4 link... Back on the recently cleaned chassis Next will be the rear axle, then the transmission... |

Well, this Honcho has gone too another home. Managed to sell it for good money. But not too worry, I bought another Honcho for cheap R1000 ($95) that needed a bit of work. Pics to follow shortly... |

| Re: My second SCX10, a Honcho
So this is how I got it... It came with no wheels, 19 turn motor, Dynamite Tazer 10 turn ESC, no radio or receiver. First thing I did, was tear it down, rebuild the centre tranny and front and rear diffs, lastly, rebuilt the shocks. Next I replaced the 19 turn motor with the 550 motor that I took out of my Dingo. That motor had bags of torque so it found its way into the Honcho. Scratched around it my parts bin to find my old Flat Irons that I cut and removed 2 lugs, and glued them to a set of Tamiya Hummer rims. Seems to look right, will test the soon. Mounted the electronics on a plate I made from 2mm black styrene. This is the results... Added some scale trash on the back, mainly because the rear cage was hacked in a bad way. Maybe I'll get a replacement in the future... |
