When I got about halfway through the second side the cut side was flexing around a bit. I thought about tacking the already cut side back together real quick but that was too much effort and kept cutting. ![]() Indeed. Tuckin' 2.2's. shown with 450 hubs. 225 hubs are on it now. | |

first chassis iteration ![]() I mocked it up and thought to myself. "Oh yea, geometry does matter on 1:10scale rigs too. Let try again" |

3rd chassis setup. Mucho betterer. Snuck some Mattzilla 3 hole tabs on the subframe. 3 holes of upper link adjustment. Lower cross bar is just sitting in place for now. Trans mount made. ![]() Sent from my thumbs. |

![]() I started last week and have been taking photos along the way. I am out of pictures as of now. I have cut and rewelded the MIP's to 6" for the driveshafts. Used 3/8", 0.04"something walled tube. Next up is shock hoops and body mounting. Probably going to hinge the body up front with a small 5/32" rod frame. 1/4" and 3/8" tube should be at the house now for the sliders, headache rack and bed. | |
