Jammin311's Chump V2 Build

[jammin311]

So I have been running a Chump V1 chassis for a year or so. Well Mr. Chump dropped off a few bodied chassis at HobbyTown Concord last week and I picked one up and thought I would do a build on it. Here is a little run down on what im running.


Berg V1 axles
2nd and 3rd Mann Gears front and back
CDW Chump V2 Bodied Chassis
CDW Upper Link mount in the front
CDW Chump Sticks
Lungsfurd Upper Links 110mm rear 55mm front for the moment
Revo rod ends
Traxxas Big Bore Socks
JeepinDug Shock caps
Homemade 86's Jeep style streering with 1/4" tied rod
SLW's V4
White Rovers
Nova 5.5 two stage with 5.5 tunner rings on inside of tire only
9157 Futaba streering srevo
Blitzs Custom made 42 turns
x2 13 t pinion
850mah battery's
FXR
Punk Dig
Axail body painted by Roksloski

Here is a old outside shot Right after I got the body back form Sloski (it don;t look this good anymore haha)


here is the old wiring



The old measurements


The unwrapping of the new chassis


The new lower link mounts. I mounted the flanged side down to the skid per Chumps suggestion so the screw is flush with the top of the mount







Rear lower links mounted


Rear upper link mounted inside but this might change

Side view with rear mounted

Here it is all mounted up



Here are the new measurements pertty much the same as my old chassis with the mods I did to it.

So as you could see from my pic's above my old wiring was a mess I had bullet conncetors on the motor and ESC. This time I wanted to hard wire everything for a cleaner look and less wire wieght up top. This is what I came up with.











And then here is a few of it done for the night












Tomorrow Im going to mount the body mounts, spacing out the shocks and start the BIG job of changing out all my bearings

Rebuild looks great James Good job on the wiring too. I'll have to get to HT so I can see it in action sometime

[TANK]

damn you use your 0g wire from your car stereo on that thing? Looks good!

[shelby]

That's looking real nice. The wiring came out much cleaner than the first time.

I'd like to eventually try out that chassis on my xr.

Thank you very much! This is not a XR chassis. It looks very close but the shock mount arms have a bit different angle. I could not tell you the differents in the angle though.

Well then I plan on getting the xr10 version lol. I really like the looks of CDW chassis and the fact that they are comp proven makes them that much better.

Looking great James! It looks like a performer!

Yea this time a tried to do a good job! I got a alot of s**t for my wiring so this time I wanted to do it right!

Little update: Last night I replaced every bearing in my rig and spaced out the shocks. I'll have pic's up later.

Tonight is finding the bind in my real axle (something did not get reinstalled right im thing) and to mount up the body. Then I should be ready for thursday nights comp at HobbyTown Concord.

Two weeks means 3 months

[jammin311]

So Like I said last night was bearing replacement night I replaced every single bearing in the rig. I have been running most of them for well over 6 months and it was starting to show.


Some had more wear then others these 2 were done completely.


Last weekends comp had a bit of water so some of these look bad but most were still good but I replaced anyway.


While I was in the axles I noticed me new Locker came loose from the gear. Like everyone I know said it would after I already bout it and installed it. The damage was nothing really but it shows.


So I replaced it with my old stock one for now.



The Mann gears are holding up great!! I have a small chip in one of the 2nd gears as you can kindof see in the pic, the one on the right. but man these gears are tough. I have put them through soo much and they are still going strong.


Tonight I installed some new Gunner body mounts. and took a few pic's whit body on.




Notice any thing wrong in the pic's above?


















OOPS!!!

I noticed on my streering tie rod That one of the rod ends was not moving very well so I decided to replace it and drill the hole deeper and re tap it well I tapped to hard and snapped the tap in the hole.

Oh well we move on.



I made a new one and drilled the holes but I have to wait till tomorrow to get to HTC. and get new taps.
