6x6 Cliff climber build So I know that CC's are not the best crawlers, but I did like how my comp cc climbed, so with the comp rig and stock rig that I have I decided to start a project build that I've wanted to do for years. A 6X6 CRAWLER! so heres the start of the build. Any and i mean ANY info/input would be helpful. comp rig on right longer rear links to spread the wheelbase out a bit- http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/o...g/P1010642.jpg http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/o...g/P1010641.jpg a dirty mock up to see if I can use the stock chassis but it looks like im going to have to make one. http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/o...g/P1010643.jpg http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/o...g/P1010644.jpg Plans are to build chassis to make shocks vertical space axles properly use a pickup cab only and fab up a flatbed, not sure if im going to change the electronics but it will be 6WD and 6WS. |
Cool project and probably inexpensive with how cheap you can pick these up for. |
NIce cheap project,are you running 3 motor off of on esc? |
No the front axel is on one esc the back 2 are on a seperate esc...and yes inexpensive because i traded a 1/16th slash for the 2 CC and a Axial AX10. |
Why don't you go 8x8, at least i would and would like to, you already have the axle so why not just mount it up to the front? Otherwise cool build, have you made anymore progress? nic |
To simplify the frame set up,I would just run a pair of straight rails,would be much easier to set up.Also what kind of body were you thinking for the final build? |
This Project dead? I have 4 extra CC axles and was thinking about whipping up a 6x6 or maybe an 8x8 |
Yeah pretty much, 8x8 8x8 you can still save the cliff climber thread"thumbsup" |

Might as well you could run the front two together using a y harness and the rear two the same way. Will you have independent steering front and back? or will they all just turn together? I toyed around with a 12x12 concept in drawings but never got around to building it, or buying more axles :lmao:. Maybe one day i will try with Rs10 axles as they are stronger and easier to get. Good luck, to bad cliff climbers have pretty much died, i always wanted them to do good. Oh well. |

12 x 12 would be nuts. I do have 6 CC axles, but it would require dismantling my kids functioning CC. Long live the Cliff Climber!!! |
It will be cool no matter what you decide on, i wouldn't dismantle your kids one unless they want a 12x12 :ror: Good luck |
Any updates on this or anyone tackle one yet? |
