yeah, too bad it's not an f1 rig. maybe foff someday lol. thanks man. those beadlocks took awhile to assemble. I think I will weigh them tonight for a total with the weights I installed+tire+hardware.

Mayhem posted that these were 6.2 oz per wheel, then I added 4 oz. to each.

We will see how it crawls today......these tires feel sticky......

I can maybe smell another short video coming on soon (with better quality this time).
I also was thinking of getting some of these just to add to the links so they look a little more scale, ever tried them?

Steely M3 Rod End (Heim Joint)

They look adjustable.

I like those ends, would look way better. I've got black anodized ones on mine.
The best bit is as they are metal they just wind on easily, no gripping the shaft with pliers etc.

Video!

Lets get some more pics up!

I think I want an R1 now. This damn hobby is getting way to expensive, plus I haven't worked on my 1:1 Juggy for over 3 months, I'm on here more than Pirate

Hmm never thought of using old cans like that, how did you flatten them out for a few days under something heavy or do they loose there shape pretty quick?
