So, I guess I'm a Chump.............. Well the time had finally come to retire the BiggaH berg. Loved running the truck all year and it worked well for me. After some talking and a lot of back and forth. I acquired a Chump RT 2.5 I have always liked this chassis, but was never in the place to get one. Don't get me wrong I love my Y-town products, but I wanted to do something else. So I will get on to a couple pics from building some links and spacers yesterday. I will update the thread with my parts list as I go. Figured I needed to start somewhere:lmao: A big thanks to Bryce (95 geo) for the help in his kick ass shop"thumbsup" Also a huge thanks to Nabil for making this build possible and for putting up with me:mrgreen: Last, but not least thanks to Rick at SuperShafty.com and John at Holmes Hobbies you guys are the best"thumbsup" A pic before the tear down. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...125BB840E1.jpg No looking back now:mrgreen: http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12970C790A.jpg http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12C43C6C63.jpg Lowers bent up. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...1254374FA7.jpg Building the al uppers. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...126153ADAA.jpg http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12B5C6A8E1.jpg Ready for axles. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12E590A491.jpg Bryce running the lathe for some spacers. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12EE5F4CE6.jpg Did a little milling on the lower link mounts. http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...12F8203E95.jpg This is where I'm at now, heading out in a few to get the rest worked out"thumbsup" http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n...1302E8DB47.jpg Stay tuned, Farmer |

Re: So, I guess I'm a Chump.............. You're quite welcome, it was a fun day in the shop! This is how you cut a bunch of 2mm wide spacers and make sure they're flat while not losing them! http://i324.photobucket.com/albums/k...479399EF7E.jpg |
Re: So, I guess I'm a Chump.............. That was interesting to say the least. Thanks again man"thumbsup" Later, Farmer |
About time this chassis gets some time. I'm sure it'll be working this weekend. Where's mine? Man Bryce that shop is sick not to mention that 1:1 in these pics. I still need my link mount flattened out yet. |
Re: So, I guess I'm a Chump.............. I might know someone that will be able to cut carbon fiber for you, in the very near future.. Looking good guys... |
