What is the width between the frame rails at the transmission/motor mount, I am curious if the RC4WD R2 tranny would bolt in place.

I received my chassis yesterday and it looks great. The RC4WD R2 tranny won't fit unless the inside of the shock towers have some material removed.

I got a questions for Generis

I got 2 questions for you

about the 21'' 4 Ten Chassis

1. what is the wheel base of the 21'' chassis

I have a 1:6 Scale Humvee body that is 21 3/4 long

and need a chassis that I can get a 16 1/4'' wheel base out of, cause 16 1/4'' is center of the front and rear wheel wells

2. do they make Axial AR60 or the Wraith axles leaf spring mounts

or is it possible to have a set of 4 made

I want to use the Wraith axles cause the Humvee body is 10 1/4 '' wide

and the Wraith axles with 2.2'' wheels and tires and with .475 SLW hubs are the perfect width for the Humvee body

I would really like to know the wheel base of the 21'' 4 Ten chassis

thank you

Hello,
This item has been discontinued and replaced with our new CMAX chassis, available early in 2016. Check this link here: >>CMAX CHASSIS LINK<<
The rail is 19 inches long on the new chassis.
Thanks

that does not answer any of my questions

I'm looking for chassis with a 16 1/4'' wheel base

and you telling me you got a new chassis with even less information

then the 21'' 4 ten chassis

Is not helping me at all

and why would a wait for new chassis that you can not even

show pictures of yet, and there is no wheel base information

Just like there is no information on the 21" 4 Ten chassis

That's why I asked you in the first place

So again how does this help me

If you can't answer the questions

then just say so

not refer me to a product that is not even available

with no information at all

Hi, I have a question.

So the width between leaf mounts on the RC4WD D35 & K44 Axles are about 80mm or roughly 3.1" apart....would I be able to use these axles on the CMAX chassis without mounting the brackets on the outside of the chassis?

Am I stuck using an RC4WD chassis for these axles or fabbing my own to get a setup where I can just use the brackets mounted normally rather than on the outside of the rails?

Thanks

Our CMAX chassis uses RC4wd axles and our outside-the-rail leaf mounts. It works great, and we have tons of setup and wheelbase adjustments. There's no under-frame option for leaf mounting. The frame width on our CMAX is likely the most narrow of any of the options, and it's compatible with a ton of axle options and body setups, along with having a full scale driveline under the truck. I have seen a TON of trucks with leaf mounts outside the rails in the 1:1 size.

I need this truck already. I missed out on a single=liink coil=over suspension custom Unimog on a sale thread and haven't the place to fabricate anything without ruining my rentals carpet, so buying is my only option, albeit the best one.

Hi, We will release a brand new chassis and suspension and axle setup in only a few weeks now, and your Mog will have a perfect home to live on! The 4TEN as you know it in this thread has been discontinued.
