| * Unimogers 09' season rig " Copperhead " *
Well, after driving Ron's " Yawzer ", we decided that 2 was better than one. here is Ron's original thread: Yawzer's Slingshot / Hr Axle Build This is the name I have used on my comp rig for a few years. Copperhead's Specs: - Slingshot chassis, pc'd black chrome - custom MSD aluminum BOMB PROOF links - Losi .6 shocks, Losi reds in front, silver in rear, 40wt oil - Hitec HS 5955 TG steering servo, with custom MSD high steer delrin links - HR MOA axles w/ RCP knuckles in front, axial plastic rear (I'm too cheap to buy another set of RCP knuckles) - Fubar rear lockouts by Mthead - Integy lathe 45t motors w/ 12t pinion rear and 13t front - Tekin FXR esc - CC BEC @ 6.4V - Spectrum SR3100 receiver - MSD 1 OFF wheels, 4-DYCE with teflon coated copper color - MSD Stainless steel screw kit - MSD 2.2 center cap- lugnuts - Losi rock crawler tires - Hybrid memory foams , NWT tech - Front & rear dig - Badd's design - 12.5" wb and 2 5/8 "under the belly, low rider. and last but not least - Body by FTR, sorry mike, already had it :( The only things I didn't like about the HR axles were the servo mount and the upper link attachment, so Ron built me new ones - see 4 Link & horiz. servo for HR MOA I clocked the rear up like everyone does, the front is fine - they seem to be somewhat clocked stock. Steering is a little more than the Axial's. It runs as good as it looks and the 3s lipo kicks azz! pics: Last edited by Unimoger; 12-08-2008 at 01:48 PM. |

Lookin' good Ben - love that body. I still need to get that steering link from you - I'm still surprised you retired the "grounder" - It's going to be a fun 09 comp season. See ya at the Comp this weekend. |

Nice looking rig. Got any pics of the upper mount you changed? That is one of the main reason I did not go with the HR axles over the bergs is because I did not want a 3 link.

thanks for the good words guys. I have not posted naked pics, cause my wiring looks like a rats nest to say the least and is a little embarrassing, I will get some this weekend when it is cleaned up. | |
