CFM: Yeti XL product line Exclusively at CKRC

[CarterFab]

Rpm Rod ends are definitely beefy and testing has gone well with them on the rear upper links.
Our front link kits will be coming together next week and be available with CKRC in time for Christmas, and we may have a few panel options available by then also.

At best, I'd say this Yeti XL is 1/6-1/7 scale maybe, especially when viewed sitting next to a 5b.

Carter, have you driven your XL yet?

I say it's about 1/6. it's about the same size as my 1/6 FG buggy.

Are you still planning on doing a hub system and the Method wheels?

[ednerin]

Method wheels!.... Could you make them in a bead lock version? If so I'd buy some!

[Fordfreak95]

Any updates on wheels? I'm about to buy another two stockers. That's four all together now. The break pretty easily on their sides/edges. I like the stock tires...they need better foams but the wheels just stink!

[Kennybrook]

I'm about to sell some stock wheels and tires. They have about 15 minutes on them. What's a good price on them?

I like the idea of parts for this pile of weak crap cause it breaks everytime i drive it but why exclusive with CKRC?
Myself and most the guys i crawl with won't ever order from them again after horrible service and junk parts so i hope you plan on having them on your own page.

Problems are from the previous owner of CKRC. Its under new ownership and they are far and above the old service. They also will be he first to step up and help if you're at an event where as other "popular" stores could care less.
CKRC will be one of the premier stores for online and in store rock crawling support for 2015.
The XL line will be exclusive to them as they have the rights to it and they have also stepped up I be our flagship distributor for next year and will have the entire CFM product line available.

Good to know,thanks for the heads up.
May have to give them another chance then.

[CarterFab]

Definitely! Good people.

[Terrible1]

Just wondering... Any new word on when we'll see availability of XL parts? I've been periodically checking CKRC website and no updates as of yet. Thanks in advance for any info!

[rockhugger]

But there is nothing there when you go search under Carter, Yeti XL.

Product labels came in last Friday. Will be getting stuff to CKRC next week

[CarterFab]

Not part of the product line but these should be an improvement until we get our wheels in production.
Narrowed Axial oversize 8hole beadlocks.
Stuffed with CI Dw foams
New R35 rubber

[Terrible1]

Sweet! Looking forward to seeing (and getting my hands on) the new line up of parts and thanks for the quick response!

[SteveC6R]

Have you got any pics of the finished or final look of the panels?

I may be mis-reading that. Are you offering those wheels for purchase?

[CarterFab]

Did a little more product testing last weekend after we laid out our U4RC track. Nothing from the CFM line failed not the narrowed wheels. The CI DW foams are such an improvement. Notice zero balloting in the pics.


Also detailed the tires in honor of the new BFG Baja KR

[CarterFab]

Link kits, and both roof options are shipping today to CKRC.
Front link kits replace all links on the front end including the drag link from servo.
Machined 6061 Kaiser links and Revo Rod ends come assembled ready to install.

[CarterFab]

Tie rods and drag link are 1/4" and the camber links are beefy 5/16" hex. These will not fail, look great, and lightweight.
