The new steering angle with the XVD's does look good   |

The DMG chassis pieces are also installed. A major improvement in chassis stiffness.    |

Do the rc4wd cvds actually increase the steering angle over stock? I would think the knuckles and links hitting the pumpkin would determine the steering angle? The angle in the pics looks great (by scaler standards). If you have any insights...Post up.  |

Well the SCX10 shocks were nice to get my ride height down but offered almost no dampening power. The stock shocks are decent but I wanted an upgrade. So I just picked up two sets of these Powerstroke front shocks for the Traxxas Slash. Should be a good looks and performance gain.  http://prolineracing.com/performance...-shocks-front/ |

one thing to make sure of, is that your wheels are vented before baking. ive ruined tires before due to the air inside expanding and stretching out the tires. | |

 The stock Wraith wheels come stock vented, but a useful time on other vehicles maybe. | |

Well since I removed the dig unit I am now adding dual winches to this rig. So I grabbed two new Futaba S9157 servos out of the stockpile and got ready to go to town! I didn't have much time to do anything tonight so I decided to just get the servos converted for now. I will likely need to order they Heyok controllers but for now I will be going a different direction and they won't be needed yet. I will be killing the power to the servos with a 3 position switch on the rig so there really won't be a chance to drift (in theory). I used Norm's thread on converting a winch to get me started as I haven't converted a servo in YEARS. Starting point  The innards.  Pop the bearing off the bottom of the main gear  Remove the plastic piece that keys into the potentiometer.  Plug the servo in to your radio gear with everything powered up and turn that little brass piece until the servo stops spinning. Then I added some CA glue to hold it in place.  Just reassemble and your done. Pretty freaking easy  |

I'll get onto fabbing up the mounts and spools later on. I may have to go bug Jerry at the DMG |

Dammit Josh, whats up with you painting your toenails again? I thought we talked about this,lol  BTW, using the Heyok hack is really the best way to convert a winch. I have his new High voltage ones and they are awesome. and for the record, Its Grizz's How too on the conversion. |
