Much better!


And of course we put in some OT Shafts for rear end beef.

No diff covers ... yet ... but we did add in Black Link Mounts to clean up at least part of the axle housings.

Any way you could bend one like that and then bend it around the link mount aswell? Mines right over the link mount.

You moved your axle forward?

Nope.
The servo arm screw sticks up and makes it look that way due to the angle of the picture.

Would be additional clearance with a shorter arm for sure, but it clears ... just barely.
Like paper thin barely.

You can imagine how much contact there is with the stock 4mm rod ends and a big servo arm like this.
But none of that is due to the trackbar, and still, you could raise up the servo with 1mm spacers to correct it in that case.

I suspect you might have to bend your own.

We have the means to move the trackbar mount forward with this conversion mount:
Pro CMS - SCX10 II Drop Mount

But only on a stock chassis.

Yeah I was just curious if you were able to with yours I like how thin it is.

Without having it here to create one specifically for.... I'd be guessing.

I suspect you have the talent to bend up your own though using one of these:
90mm M3 Threaded Bar

It will really just depend on how much bend you need exactly. If it is too much, you might end up needing a longer one, but that also might be made up for with some longer rod ends.

Max Clearance Trackbar - SCX10 II

Re: Locked Up's SCX10 II Build
 
I know that eventually I will be wanting to push the wheelbase forward a bit so I went ahead an installed the Locked Up RC Pro CMS for SCX10-II.

This will also give me a more sturdy track bar mount on the chassis side, and I know I'll need that because I'm not one to back off the throttle in a bind. :mrgreen:


This version was easier to install then the original SCX10 kit because you don't have to monkey around with opening up the axle.

I opted to keep the stock shock hoops for now but I will go with the Devil RC Aluminum Shock Hoops for SCX10-II once I figure out how I want to hide the body clips.

How did you keep the stock battery tray? Isn't it too flimsy now?

Nope.
Still plenty strong.

BUT, if you were concerned you could easily modify the stock servo mount and re attach it in the rear to gain back a mount point.

Long term we are looking to move a few things around so there will be more changes on this one.

I ordered just the trackbar mount to see if I could use it on my Brazin Chassis.
I really dont like the 3d printed one I have now. Its really bulky, my tire rubs it when i turn.

Did you figure out how to hide the clips? This is something I've been trying to figure out with my own kit.

Velcro ;)

I made a couple plates that the shock towers go through and are held on with body clips. Then between the posts is Velcro. Works like a charm. Can get pics of ya want.

I've seen a few people do this but have heard that the body can come off pretty easy should you roll it and I'll probably roll it a lot :mrgreen:

It sounds like this is the best/easiest route to go though. How did you figure out how low on the body posts to place the velcro?

I used magnets before and although they're nice because they self-centre, the body popped off all the time. Hated it.

This Velcro mount I have is pretty strong, takes some convincing to get it off. My patches are about 3" x 1" front and back so lots of surface area.

For body post height I just put them in the holes up high without the set screws, then set the body on top and pushed down until it was at the height i wanted. Then removed the body and found the closest hole in the post for the set screws that worked.

That's amazingly simple! I love it. Going to give that a shot, thanks!
