Nice looking chassis..

With the skid drilled the way you have it pictured, will a DNA dig clear the rear lower links ??

Also If you could PM me the distance between the lower links or tell me... Im curious if its under or around 2'' of not...

Thanks again

Great looking chassis and Great Price too !!!!

The distance between the links is 1.6". The dna should clear the links but it will be close. My prototype skid is offset alittle, but it does clear

hessian18 · 01-15-2009, 11:15 PM

ok thanks for the reply..

can you offer the skid NON drilled ??

are you offering link sets for this chassis yet ??

thanks again

TK-twister · 01-16-2009, 10:03 AM

I use Revo links and bend them The will fall right into spec as they are bent. I can give you the part #s for those. I can possibly make you a non-drilled plate. I had them all drilled to make it simpler, but
I will throw out a special

hessian18 · 01-16-2009, 11:22 PM

Sounds like a plan !!

Now that Dog man is offering the dog legs, I may go that route

Im currently running revo suspension pushrods.....same thing ??

I do like the strength of steel

I use the red anodized revo links. They are solid 7075-t6 aluminum and I have never bent or broke one. They are exceptionally strong. you can see them in one of the pics

cmbogner · 01-19-2009, 01:23 AM

I saw where you would possibly not drill the skid plate, as well would it be possible to not have it cut so I could run my links closer to the frame instead of near the middle. Or does this not matter on the lower links I haven't seen that set up before? I also have never seen only two links on the front, was this how it was built or was that just when the pic was taken

I could supply you with a blank piece of delrin cut to the basic shape of the kit one and then you could do whatever you want in you own style to suit you. I have no problem with that. Now keep in mind I would have to order some delrin and cut it so that may add a couple of days to the shipping. Other than that I am flexable

I was wondering if I went with small t bone chassis so that I could use my Losi 4" crawler shocks what length would the dogleg high clearance links need to be to give me a 12.5" wheel base? in a AX10 setup.

abadk9420 · 03-20-2009, 08:15 PM

Her is a few pics of my crawler with my new TK Twister Small T-Bone Chassis and custom cut The Real Dogman Dogleg lower links
