Wroncho owners...need your help

[fj40jay]

why not just XR mod an ax axle to get more width and more steering with out dealing with all the other BS? I ask because I am looking to widen the stance of my scx, just for fun.

I'm not familiar with the XR mod? Maybe other could answer this.

Guy that are using the wraith skid and scx tranny this question is for you. When i went to mount the tranny to the skid the motor hits the link mounts. I have a tendency to over think things so i was wanting to see what methods were used to overcome this. I thought about using spacers to lift the tranny or cut a groove in the link mount. I will try to post a pic.

How are you running your shocks? They look as if they are almost horizontal?

i would do it again.and again and again.

i love the look.they look way better then the stock axles.i went with a centered rear axles here a week ago. i also didnt use the wraith skid plate either.

its really great but it makes everything almost too easy to over come, but if you wanna build it go for it, it is a fun build, I would recommend using wraith links, skid, driveshafts, and just drill new holes in the scx frame to mount the skid, then you wont have to run into the problem of your driveshaft binding up with your upper links.

easy is a good thing no? isn't that why we keep modding and tuning? to make lines easier?

that is true but I like being challenged a lot ha but other than that its a very fun truck to drive and everyone will ask about it

[wsmb]

lol gotta get another rig or find harder lines

[BigJon]

All I did was three link front and rear and stretched the wb a bit so no link clearance issues! And I think it performs better with the SCX skid as it is smaller.

Did you get the trans clearance issure resolved? I just spur of the monent decided on a wroncho build last week. I am going to be using the scx trans and wraith skid as well.
atencio has been helping me via text and pictures on my wroncho build.

[n8welch]

Yeah. I used small spacers to lift the tranny off the skid just enough. Worked great. Ill post up a pic later if you wanna see.
