Anyway you could post an engineering drawing? I have been wanting to make a chassis but I don't have the dimensions and I think I will screw up |

I take no credit for the design of the chassis, I found this page a long time ago and used one of John North's designs. | |

I'm working on a Widow LP chassis, designed by Offroader5, for my TLT crawler right now. Unless you're running a wheely king though, you'll need to make some changes. It's nice to have a start though, and printing off templates makes fabbing almost brainless, haha.

Stock design seems to work well with the CC axles as I built it, I am using another one of his designs for a scaler based off of the Tamiya Pajero. I love working with Delrin, it is so easy to deal with and it holds up great to the abuse I put it through. All the work I have done has been using woodworking tools. It dulls blades and bits fast but it is worth it.

So you used the widow lp version? Did you have to modify it?

Yes, I used the widow lp. I did not modify the chassis. I made a custom skid, links, and used Duratrax Evader ST front shocks on all 4 corners. Sorry, I did modify it a little, I drilled additional holes for the upper link mount so i could use what worked the best. I used the spacing on the drawing and drilled the chassis all the way down to the bottom skid mount. I am using a hole almost in the middle for my upper link mounts.

I did the same thing, ended up swiss cheesing the original design for different upper link and shock mounts.
