| My Burly truck build
Since I first seen Harley's post on this subject I had to build one. I did use several of his recommendations. This truck does not disappoint! So here are the pictures. This is the donor truck. The parts that will be used. I did install under drive gears front & rear. I also installed RC4WD 12mm wheel spacers to stop the 2.2 tires from rubbing. I used 110mm king shocks with 50 wt in the rear & 40 wt in front. I also installed Gear Head shock keys to help compensate for the burly kit. Everything is bolted up & fits great. I used this Proline Chevy body due to it having a 13.25" wheel base. I got the body painted, this turned out awesome! Best paint job I ever did.

The power train consists of a AE-5 ESC, 20 turn Wraith motor, 16 tooth pinion, 87 tooth spur, steel gears in trans & RR one piece bottom gear. Drive shafts are MIP AX10 shafts with Super Shafty exclusive splines. These are a must with the longer wheel base. This rig is running on 3s. I ran this rig for 20 minutes in tall grass and the temps didn't exceed 105 degrees. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Took the burly truck out for her first mud run. She did very well but needs some tuning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Shame to muddy it up but I guess that's what you built it for.That slow motion mud flinging looked fantastic.Almost sounded like gear grindage at the end.

Thanks, there is body roll but I was able to control it with stiffing the shocks on one side of the Vechicle. But I think it definitely needs sway bars at least in the rear to start. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |
