I also replaced the shock wheel hex with some from a Axial RTR . I like the set screw being in the hex . No lost drive pins . Last edited by Badd; 01-22-2009 at 10:31 PM. |

It will never work. I heard from a little birdie that white is the new pink. |

Well after talking to Jeff I change mine up abit . I got a black skid I also got all black hardware . I'm going to paint/power coat the dig tray black and the standoffs will be black. I also got a pair of the Prototype med. clearance front links . Now I'm waiting on a few parts . (new big bore shocks and standoff mostly) here is the new Prototype front links with the reg. high clearance link beside it . |

Looking good mate How much do those proto links change your wheelbase compared to the standard high clearance links ? |

I got my upper links & standoffs in today .The standoffs are Axial AXA1381 (7x50MM) . I got Traxxas 5318x for the front and 5319x for the rear . I removed the red from them and painted them black . I got the Castel Sidewinder/ BEC , Hitec Servo (hs-7955tg) & Spektrum receiver in this week . I fund time to build the DD Axle case sliders today . I like the ones that I had on my other well known rig . So I had to have a them on this build as well . |

I got the shocks in this week .So this afternoon I started doing the Rodend Mod to them . I used the same end that is on the shock shaft . I then removed the old mount on the caps and drilled for a 3mm screw . I then limited the shock back down to 4" eye to eye . I also hassed out the steering tonite . I use a mix of Revo/Jato rod and rodends . This is the same setup I ran on my OCM and it worked out great for me . |
