Default SlingShot Tech Thread

This KILLER research was done by SAMB. Thanks so much!!!


Since I now own a DNA slingshot SE chassis, I feel the need to have all the major ax-10 slingshot build threads and tech threads in one place.

I just purchase a slingshot chassis, and I was told that it comes with the rod end screws. Do I also have to purchase revo rod ends. Thanks

Hey guys! I picked up a cfx slingshot set off the forums here because I wanted to use it in my current build but when I got the kit the skid doesnt Have the holes drilled for the trans. And now that I think about it the forsale ad didnt specify whether it was a shafty or moa slingshot. My question is. Are the shafty and moa skids the same width? Can I drill my own holes and run it? Or do I need to go and buy a new skid (although the kit I got was brrand new to begin with). BTW, Im running the goat system and a dna dig.

Josh I would just take the axial skid and match it up on the cfx and drill my own holes but that's just me

I narrowed my personal SS while running a Goat and a DIG...and don't recall major fitment issues. You might have a fuzz of trimming to do around the spur tho.

Ok then. I will test fit with the extra set of aluminum plates and practice on those. Dont wanna wreck the cooler chassis if I dont have to. Where are the holes located on the stock trans plate? Like how far forward are they?
