Troy, it should go together pretty easily. Make sure to loctite all screws. I put red loctite in the rear lockout screws, the front knuckle screws (switched those to cap heads instead of button heads) and the screws that hold the upper link mounts to the axles.

Yes sir, only the best for these Berg axles. And since this is a Team Eritex crawler, only quality Eritex parts will adorn it Just got back from the shop. The front axle is clocked, using Robbs method, (thanks Robb) OCM Axle Clocking The rear lockouts are moved to the inside of the axle. Tomorrow I pick up: Novak Super Duty XR ESC It will handle up to a 4s lipo 2-55t integys JR micro servo for dig switches New set of Losi Claws Losi crawler shocks Our Eritex Berg offsets should be arriving some time this week Tomorrows plans are to cut a skid plate, some chassis cross braces, get my links measured and made, mount up motors, and hopefully get this thing a roller by the end of tomorrow night. Did I mention I'm also working 12 hour work days this week I also need mention, these chassis, and the wheels were custom made with short notice. Gerame has gone out of his way to make sure I can get this ready for the Battle Grounds comp. Thanks again Gerame! Also thanks to Nicklepimp for helping make sure I get the truck ready in time! And thanks to Wrightcs77 (MNRCRC's Berg OG) for the tips! Last edited by freetimecrawler; 07-14-2008 at 07:53 PM. |

Never got it finished :-( We opted to build Kevins First, since he had more time. I would of ran his in Ohio, but we didn't get it finished in time. I ran my AX10 to a 19th place. I've been working on the Berg this week, but no pic's, progress has slowed because I'm waiting on much needed parts, (should of been here today )I may have to order from somewhere else soon though :-(I hate waiting for mail There is no big rush on this build now, the comp I wanted it done for is over. I'll snap some pic's when my shit finally arrives Overall the build has gone pretty easy, these are sweet axles to start off with. I guess I've just been a little dissapointed waiting on parts. On the plus side, I have my AX10 dialed in pretty decent finally. Last edited by freetimecrawler; 07-26-2008 at 04:01 PM. |
