Re: KoH style Wraith nice man, gotta love the panels, shimmering in the sun, looks sic. |
Re: KoH style Wraith Rig looks great "thumbsup" |
Re: KoH style Wraith Feel like I spent all weekend making panels to mount stuff to this Wraith... First I prototyped an 0.028" thick Aluminum panel that might make its way into production, this panel is designed to mount either the 3", 4" or 5" MadDogRC - chino63 light bar to the top (or bottom) side of the Wraith roof. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05523.jpg Next I prototyped another set of panels that definetly will be a production piece. These 0.060" black Styrene panels will allow users to mount our Wraith specific Delrin Rock Lights to the under side of the Wraith rockers. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05525.jpg Lastly, I fab'd and painted an Aluminum tailgate panel that Ill use to mount a single rock light that I painted red as well as a d-ring for towage. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05533.jpg Some install pictures coming tonight... |
Re: KoH style Wraith Pretty cool idea cant wait to see how they look on the wraith especially at night."thumbsup" |
Subscribe to this one for sure!! Looking sweet so far with light mods! |
Re: KoH style Wraith Good looking setup. Where did you find lock nuts that would fit on the tie rod and drag link ends. |

Now on to an update; first I made up a wiring harness to hook up all these lights, it ended up as a two piece harness since the switch will be attached to the interior and I want to keep every thing modular. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05537.jpg The new light bar panel can be used under the stock roof panel to ensure a sturdy base to attach the bar, it will also work under with the Dinky lid with the 3" light bar: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05534.jpg The rock light panels attach to the inner case with zip ties, the Wraith specific rock light buckets attach with thin M3 hardware so as not to interfere with the interior: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05529.jpg The outer holes of the rock light panels use M2.5x8mm screws in the stock locations, M2.5 hex nut will be used to hold in the interior: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05530.jpg I also assembled the tail gate to the chassis, the M2.5x8 screws in the lower holes of the d-ring bracket go straight through the frame so that it's stout. Here is mock up with side panels, mmm... http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05540.jpg Hood mounts are Associated cross drilled socket head cap screws with some 3mm Aluminum spacers: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05548.jpg And how could you not want a 2" light bar on the front bumper?...fits nicely in stock location... http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05543.jpg |
Re: KoH style Wraith Nicely done. "thumbsup" |

Re: KoH style Wraith Looking good, I really like the light and alum panels"thumbsup" |
Re: KoH style Wraith Ok . Got ya. I've tried to do it with some tin snips. I can close but, that belt sander would be key. They look sweet. |
Re: KoH style Wraith This thing is sick! I really like that rear panel with the light and shackle mount. |
Re: KoH style Wraith Guess I was suppose to praise your panels before I asked how ya did it. |
Re: KoH style Wraith Can we get a pic of it all lit up to check out those lights??? |
Re: KoH style Wraith OK, you got pics! Didn't want to put any of the stock lights back on so I zip tied another set of the 1" rock lights to the front bumper. The angle is actually perfect to illuminate the rocks in front of the tires: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05549.jpg Roof light came out pretty cool. I wish I would have not cut the opening in the top until after I measured it, now I have two 3/16" "air ducts" on each side... http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05566.jpg Rear panel turned out sweet: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05565.jpg Now pics: http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05558.jpg http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05561.jpg http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05563.jpg http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05554.jpg http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05553.jpg http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/DSC05557.jpg "thumbsup" |
