I'll try to get more video up this week as well. I believe Chad played some super follow the leader with his XR-Wedge in Disney

Part of this falls in the Black Ops category...the few who got to see the goods last weekend are sworn to secrecy for the time being

Refer to my new t-shirt artwork

Hey Chad...are you ready to beef up with the new shock risers yet? I'll try to get 3 or 4 of the other new parts cleaned up and pics taken after a while

Hey Chad, this lil kit should get that 7980 mounted up on your front axle with no issues. The mount is machined from .125 6061 T6 aluminum, the slot is extended an additional 4mm for the added width, and is relocated forward 2.5mm for the increased depth. It also includes an aluminum spacer machined from 2.5mm alum plate for the right servo ear.

Straight compression it will hit the links but cycles smooth when flexing out take a look at closeup and see if links are in the same holes???

Put some of the longer rod ends on the upper links on the axle end. It will move the upper link away from the lowers. They are supplied with the xr10 kit. So you don't have to buy anything extra either.

Awesome. The more pictures I see of your work, Don, the more I want one of these chassis'. Problem is I over spent on other things already and my XR10 just ate the rear final gear up on my 3rd battery pack, so I'm waiting on parts. Maybe by the time I'm ready, in a month or so, you'll have a complete chassis kit with the shock risers and whatever else you've got up your sleeve? Looking forward to seeing it all. And the videos of Chad following the supers.
