I flipped the servo it puts the horn a bit more out of the way, and replaced the steering links. They are a 8-32 all thread sheathed in delrin with revo ends. Not pretty, I only had scrap pieces available, but they work and do not flex!

the vp goodies look good in black!

Tydl · 10-14-2010, 06:24 AM

that was a good idea flipping the servo like that.

DickyT · 10-14-2010, 08:46 AM

No flex upper links just arrived!

I drilled it. I have the JeepinDougs drill bushings

Still waiting on shipping notification from t1e on the rear links. Mike e-mailed me yesterday and said they "should" go out today.

Nope, one broke when I turned the rig into a U in a bind at home the other night. I have a set with a single bend until my t1e links get here. I will make some more kinky links after I have cash to buy some Ti and a bender that is up to the task.

You and me both

He has shared one pic with me, not of the chassis yet and it does not give me much to spin the wheels on. I feel like a 5 year old waiting for xmas.

Shoot RcBro a PM, I'm not sure where this came from, it just showed up

I'm sworn to secrecy by Juan right now, I have very little info myself, have not even seen a drawing of the chassis, only discussions about it. I'm hoping to see and HAVE something soon.

I've put about 30 packs through it so far, the HR grears are taking all the abuse I have thrown at them so far. I'm still waiting for shipping notification from JP Custom on the final gear, so it is still stock front and rear.

Edit: Shipping notification received on the gears this evening, next weekend I will feel more comfortable being throttle happy!

BEELZEBOB · 10-16-2010, 11:41 AM

Jarrod was pretty backed up after CRAWLAPOLOZA, apparently.

FlapJack, cant wait to see it dude!!! we'll have to hit up some local stones soon!
