| Spare parts power house.
Had a few parts sitting around so I figured I would try these Portal axles out as they were sitting off in the corner of my work bench as well. I am hoping to get it done witha MMP and a 13.5 brushless system on 4-6s power. There are a few parts Im going to try something just a little different, crossing my fingers this works Parts: Wraith chassis Portal axles MIP TLT axle upgrade TLT high clerance turning knuckles savox 1268MG servo 347oz tit links and so on... lets get to it and hope I actually finish this one. Belly has 3.5" of clerance and has been lowered .5 to 1" lower then stock. I had hoped to get it lower but ran into some clerance issues that I will cover later this week. The lower tranny plate mount on the chassis has been cut off and the tranny plate raised one inch to mount on the cross smember above it. VP lower links, the plastic four link lasted 1 minute on the first test drive. LOL Tit steering links custom built and a VP chassis servo mount holding a 1258 savox up in htere some where.

Front steering parts are headed my way as well as the aluminum four links mounts. Now for the crazy ideas; 1. This week I will be looking at drilling out the recesses for the small portal bearings and installing bigger ones all the way around. 2. I hope to replace the portal gears with 5mm pinion gears or file out the front housing to allow the gears to be swapped for a natual dig. Not that it didnt climb well before 3. Swap out the 48pitch gears for a traxxas 58t spur and a 15t pinion. Thank =s for looking Last edited by RustenPaines; 04-16-2012 at 02:33 AM. |
