Did you ever get your panhard link figured out?

| Re: K7ZPJ's Green Rubi with Portal Axles Yes, I did. Once I got it working, I started spending my time crawling instead of updating the thread. The combination of switching to the Rc4wd CMS kit and connecting the top link directly to the axle fixed the problem of panhard hitting the CMS brace/servo whichreally limited the articulation. Now it has lots of flex and no bump steer. Here some pictures of the new steering setup. Last edited by k7zpj; 09-21-2014 at 08:00 PM. |

I am running a Tekin Roc412 2300 with a Castle MMP. I have been mostly running it with a 2S battery but have run it with a 3S and didn't break any parts. The spur/pinion is 56/9. | |

Good deal. Glad you were able to get figured out. I wasnt all that impressed with the blue monkey cms kit.

The rig did turn out nicely and has seen a lot of run time on the trails and rocks this summer. It didn't turn out to be the shelf queen I thought it might be. The next thing to tackle is relocating the battery up front. | |

Don't know if you wonder in the R1 forum. Thought I share... Wraith chubs,knuckles,universals. Stronger and way more steering. DravTech presents a sneak peak on the Gmade R1 Wrapter Underdrive mod Underdrive for the R1... Finally |
