after installing shocks and upper links to the axles i zip tied the links and axles to full smash @ 12.5 inches then bent my links to the chassis

wrenchinrock · 07-09-2013, 04:02 PM

Looks killer...I WANT ONE TOO!

KR15 · 07-09-2013, 04:36 PM

I can't wait until this thing is rtr

M_ENERGY · 07-09-2013, 05:50 PM

Looking good man!! I do have my rears internally limited. I don't like my wheelbase to grow to much (next to none) or as close to it as possible. I don't know the length of the spacer

BDN probable knows the length. I do know BDN has his front externally limited as well.

AddictedtoRC1 · 07-09-2013, 07:39 PM

That is one beautiful chassis right there. Looking forward to seeing more of this build and where you take it.

HARDKNOCKZ · 07-09-2013, 08:29 PM

Wow! I like this chassis! Very slick man.

It's alive it's alive pics on the rocks tomorrow folks pics and video coming to a town near u!!!!!!!!!!! :d:d:d

ittybitty · 07-10-2013, 06:25 AM

I like what you did with your rear lowers...the smooth radius bends look nice and should work really well on this truck. While you're limiting the shocks go ahead and dump out the 20wt and bump up to something much thicker. Might check with M_ENERGY to see what he's running now that the shock positions have changed slightly, but I do know that 20wt will be way too thin.

yeah om already seeing that 20 wt is too light a friend of mine told me i i should run 10 wt but that just leaves it too springy this is also.my firs scx shock build they have their pros and cons they slide like butter but leak like crazy gonna look into a way to fic the leaky shocks thanksbfor.infonfgtÿ

wrenchinrock · 07-10-2013, 12:51 PM

well bad news ran a couple packs through it this morn got everything calibrated and adjusted take a nap after being up most of the night with this thang get up to go crawlin and whammo servo decides to take a big ol crap so back no crawlin pics till i get another servo :-(

M_ENERGY · 07-10-2013, 01:24 PM

Dang that sucks!! Get a 7950

You can play around with limiting the shocks for your personal preference. Depending how much overall height you want and how much compression which will limit your flex as well

CrawlrKing · 07-10-2013, 02:26 PM

Really sucks !!! Was counting on your vids to dream on...

wrenchinrock · 07-10-2013, 02:29 PM
