Default Evolution [56k should be ok]

Stage 1: Here is how it started after I changed the body.


Stage 2: tummy tuck, with the axle reversed, tires cut and reversed (yes back tires are forward but dont be nitpicky), body trimmed but I had to remove the grill and had to cut out most of the bed.




but the axle started clicking, I tried tightening the bolts on the tranny but it kept it up. The problem seemed to be the whole assembly shifting when forward throttle was applied

Stage 3: So axle went back the right way and on went the 2.2 MOABS. I sealed the PCB and put the battery under it. It was difficult to get to the battery so I went back to the scorpion body and cut out the floor board. I also moved the ball mounts to the opposite side of the mount because it was binding.



Here is my playground, pictures dont do it justice:




I need to get some action shots but I couldnt get to the camera and I was too excited to get the 2.2s tested.

Next, better battery, electronics, and suspension refab.

So when you flipped the axle back forward it quit clicking? I have a reversed axle on 2.2 moabs and it started clickin b4 i put the 2.2's on it. Now it won't quit, and i keep checking none of the gears are stripping. I think i'm going to flip the axle back since now i have more clearance.
