Kyle's Unemployment Wraith

[Sh0rtBus]

Okay, so this is first time I've actually read through your build thread in its entirety and I gotta say....I wanna' see this thing in person!

I'd love to be able to build a custom chassis like that, but I don't have the skill or resources necessary to do so. Any chance you'd be interested in doing another one to accept the Rubicon body?

Ok styrene is alot easier to work with than I ever imagined.
Here's the straps I made for the fuel cell

Here are my scale goodies mocked up before paint

[bagged86]

Got the motor almost ready and gonna corrosion x it today along with reassemble the tranny and axles with the new upgrades.

[bagged86]

In its place

[rc's suck]

It's coming out very nice. Keep up the great work. Your fuel cell looks very nice. Can't wait to see more.

Lol you never know when your in the desert or alone on the trails lol
Btw way to in form the people on RCC I am employed lol have been since January. Just had to build something when I was unemployed and I can't just quit because of having a job now can I.

[bagged86]

Propane is also used to increase fuel mileage and burns cleaner but also just looks cool in my rig lol

[Maddog Madigan]

Looking great Kyle! Unemployed or not, your still doing what makes you happy. Keep up these ideas you have coming. Keeps me watching.

[bagged86]

Thanks Maddog Madigan I'm just trying to keep up with you and DMG if that's even possible lol

[Soulo747]

Yo bagged.... Check your PM

[bagged86]

Battery cable anyone?

[bagged86]

Set I made installed with Team3six seatbelts

[bagged86]

Well got some work done Sunday night
Supershafty,Fast Eddy bearings (decided to install after RCScrews Bearing wear out), Robinson Racing Slash Spur Gear, and of course I ordered the wrong pinion gear got a Robinson Racing 14T on the way though.

[bagged86]

Ok finally got my Robinson Racing 14t pinion gear from the last place I thought would have it HobbyTown they never seem to have what I'm needing there unless its building material. A Huge thanks to FastEddy for getting the bearings I needed sent in a hurry great customer service by far. Next ill be up front shimming the the bearings for the VP brake kit I've had on this thing since they came out.

Two words for ya (F-ing Bombproof)

[Sh0rtBus]

Yeah....oddly enough....I've had really good luck with the Hobby Town in Plano. They were the only ones in the area that had a Micro Trekker in stock when I bought it back in March. And I've had better luck getting stuff there than I have at Mike's in Carrollton, which is close to work.

Need to see this thing run in person when you get it back together.

[bagged86]

Mikes Is great but it's a short course place for sure.
Ours has a lot of axial vehicles just not any parts oddly enough.
Your not to far from where I live like 45min at best.

[bagged86]

Well been making different seats for back ups depending on how I feel lol


Let me know what y'all think

[Sh0rtBus]

They look great, man! I need to learn how to do that......or just buy seats from you.

[BGR Fabrications]

Must say, SUPER BAD ASS seats!! PM comin attcha!! Put me on the waiting list!! LOL
