Yea you dolts! Don't think olblue is gonna get mad, throw a baby fit and storm off.
















Again for a third time

i think if you really set your mind to it, you could figure out how to make it happen. you'll wanna throw the friggin thing through a window at times, but in the end, you can do it. and when ya do, you'll get that "holy shit! i did it!" feeling that one gets when they accomplish something. and be sure to take pics and notes along the way and post up. if there is no solution to the problem you see at hand, make it happen. it will be easier for others in the future.

man you're still going on about this? just get yourself a comp crawler and put a scaler body on it. since you obviously dont care if it looks scale.

meanwhile i spend HUNDREDS of dollars buying NARROWER axles for my axial scalers so they look better. HOURS of custom mods later, i have a rig that actually looks good
.... but you dont hear me complaining about the time and money it took. cuz like rik said, i like the feeling i get when i accomplish something.

Apparently he's what I've come to call brick dumb. You can't reason with a brick. You can't get a brick to see a flaw especially if its a flaw pertaining to the brick. All you can do is get pissed off and throw the brick through a window in frustration.

I'm no mason so I've learned to give up on bricks. They can figure it out for themselves or not...

Here's your kit in the fs section. SCX10 frame AR60 axles just add a jeep body.

I am not that great of a builder and have back neck and shoulder problems and I figured out how to put wraith axles under my scx10. It isn't that hard even if you do it diferently than the ones that have already been posted in this thread. It took me about 3hrs and I can only mess with it for about 10 min till my arms and hands go to sleep then have to wait till they wake up to get back at it. I think your time was up a long time ago if it isn't done by now you should just give up and move on or pay somebody to build you exactly what you want.

some of the concerns we had going into this is and any project...

Price.
Functionality.
Durability
Realism.
Feasibility.
Simplicity.
Compatibility.
Popularity.
Legality.
Efficiency.
Flexibility.
Accessories.
Inventory.
Sales.
Marketing.
Bottom line.

Until you have handled any kind of consumer project, you simply can not understand what it takes. it is like thinking you can understand what it is like to have kids, if you have not done it you DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

For me these projects are not much different than making a robotic arm for a semiconductor company, a device for a medical company, a fuel valve for a F-16, or a brake lever for a motorcycle, but most of the factors above still come into play every time.

And when you have thousands of customers with hundreds of opinions on 15 forums, emails, phone calls, walk-ins, and what you should make, what is should look like, weather it should be for stock, more narrow, wider, blue green or black, Delrin, titanium, or aluminum, 3, 4 or 5 inches wide, with this that or the other. and then this all the while, dealing with past, present, and future projects, and juggling the 1000's factors of running a small business.

Most peoples heads would pop or melt..... and then someone comes here with their 30 seconds thought out rant because they stubbed their toe, or fly landed on their cheerios Everyone has who makes something has to pay ?

bah, my egg mc'muffin's just arrived....

Go make your own stuff, its easy...

[WHITE-TRASH]

After all this time I had to go look over the first post again to see exactly what this exercise in douchebaggery was all about.


Seems I'm a fawking genius compared to the op and I didn't even know it.



Stock scx skid untouched, dual triangulated rear 4 link and 3 link front with VP panhard mount on the axle. All the links are straight except the panhard and it was super easy to do. Gawdammed Jeannieass I tells ya!

Well, you know what they say about people who ASSume.

It was just an off the cuff remark, and apparently it isn't me who is getting carried away.

[LR3]

Dang, I turn 18 tomorrow but the absolute lack of maturity represented here is astonishing. I was a tool for a while, but good lord above this was a good read. Then the fact that you bumped it two months later....really bro? Is there nothing else that you have time to do.



Take good care of your cats, they are the only pu$$y you'll ever get

[kgb424]

Can I ask, if moving the upper links in more towards the center of the chassis

Did that help with drive shaft binding on the upper links, that's the problem I'm having with AR60 axles, I flipped the out put shafts on the transmission, so there on the same side as axle input shafts

And the drive shaft binds on the upper links and does not spin freely

I was looking at making my own or buying some bolt on upper link risers, but not sure if that would work cause, it moves the links up and forward or backward depending front or rear axle

Your solution moves the links in so there straight across from axle truss and centered in front of the skid plate and still are at the stock height and have not moved forward or backward

Maybe I will try it, if I can find some thing for spacers and some long enough screws,
