I like those output shafts do you have some pics of them in the housings?

Re: Terra-Wraith
 

Not yet, I am also waiting for some 10mm shims to tighten up my gear mesh so I cant put it all together yet. I did a test fit though and all is well :)

Re: Terra-Wraith
 

If this shit breaks, I'm finding a new hobby :ror:

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Got my new shafts today and they fit perfectly, no trimming or other mods needed :)

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Looks good.


Now put the shocks on. :lol:

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Done :flipoff: JIA, your such a negative nancy :ror:

Its not what I really wanted to do but it works and everything is nice and smooth. I just use long screws that go through to the back of the arms. I thought the arms may flex too much but its not even an issue. I wanted to use some internal spring shocks but the only ones available look cheesy and the crawler spring rates would be way too soft.

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

That's the only thing I could think of to be able to run the PowerStrokes with those in place. Did you space the top shock mount at all?

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

I didn't, the pro-line bushing had just enough misalignment so that it doesn't bind.

Now I need to start tearing the rear apart.

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Well send me the front end so I can build a custom chassis off the Terra front end. I need to buy one of these kits - so many ideas........

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Done!! Ready for testing!!

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Couple more :mrgreen:

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Little Update:


Well, I put some time on the mod and overall I'm happy with it. I had it bound up every which way in the rocks and no breakage, Thank god. After 3 2200 packs I did notice that the diff side drive hub on the left rear was a little loose. The set screws backed out some which pisses me off because I cleaned everything with brake cleaner, applied red lock tight and tightened the shit out of em with a high quality driver.... Then let it cure overnight.. So I ordered knurled point set screws from Mcmaster Carr: McMaster-Carr

If that doesnt work Ill drill the outputs for traxxas screw pins..

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

I am thoroughly impressed. WOW!!!

I can't wait to see this beast in action.

Awesome build. Now lets see if we can get that thing "G6 Certified"! "thumbsup"

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Wait until you see the rigs that we've got lurking here in Hawaii. :twisted:

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

Thanks Brian! I cant wait to get my fix in the next G6:mrgreen:

I wanna see all the IFS rigs run a G6 at once.. It'll be sweet!!


And just another update.. For any one wanting to do the MIP mod.. The knurled tip set screws solved the out drive loosening issue.. I had to buy a box of 50 so if anyone wants 8 for their build pm me"thumbsup"

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

I like the idea but Im gonna have to see some G6 action to believe it. Think it will be ready by the 10th ? Ru gonna run it?

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

11/10's my birthday so the wife has to let me go :ror:

I will be rockin the Terra-Wraith "thumbsup"

Re: Terra-Wraith now with MIP mod
 

The rig is running perfectly and has not broken after hours of G6 and other random stupidity..:ror:

I thought I would post some pics of today's outing.. This thing seems to have so much more traction these days8)
