Starting the build right now. We will get a picture at the end of each page with some thoughts on our progress. First thing, right out of the bag.... Frame is the same basic shape, with just a few additional holes. ![]() And note # 1 from page one: They mean M2x8 screws. Not M2.6x8 ![]() Last edited by Locked Up; 06-06-2016 at 07:09 PM. |

First little hiccup.... No matter what we do, the locker/gear assembly will not go into the housing far enough to be centered with the axle tubes. It's close, but when trying to slip a shaft in we looked down the tubes and noticed this.... ![]() Last edited by Locked Up; 06-05-2016 at 02:46 PM. |

| ![]() Nothing. Stock shafts will go in and it will "work" because there is play for things to move around. It is really tight on one side and loose on the other though. Over time the shaft being off will probably cause wear/fatigue which is not ideal. Will just have to see. The real issue (for us) is that if the housing is off, and we tried to jam an OT shaft or FI spool in there... the bind could be worse and could prevent rotation. |

Playing with the wheels while Eric builds the kit. ![]() The original SCX10 beadlock vs the glue on SCX10 II. Offset (not backspacing) is identical. ![]() Original SCX10 clearance: ![]() Our 8L clearance: ![]() Because the 8L fits, it means all our SLW wheels will still fit with our .185 SLW style hubs. ![]() |

Eric is assembling the shocks so I get to play with wheels & tires. ![]() Stock vs Ikari AO8™ ![]() Stock vs Ikari AO8™ with a 1.9 widener. ![]() The stock wheels is within 1mm of the Ikari. So to keep it as close to stock as we can, we will run the wideners ... but they do look good! Last edited by Locked Up; 06-06-2016 at 11:21 AM. |

Eric's note: The instructions don't mention it, but if you plan on running bump stops make sure you put them in before you put the rod end on. ![]() ![]() Last edited by Locked Up; 06-05-2016 at 05:28 PM. |

With the kit, you get 2 skid plate options. One is drilled for the old transmission. One for the new. ![]() Compared to SCX10 original skid. Only thing I see different is the 2 added captures. ![]() |
