| Another Rebuild of the comp rig
After experimenting with new link geometry, I decided to go forward with my re re re re re build lol. My GC3 clone sportsman handles very well. The Vanquish incision chassis has almost identical mounting points, but is lower. So thus I dusted her off and went back to it for the 3rd time. I did my best on the build to copy almost all the link's and their mounting locations as the GC3. The front will be a little different to get the caster I want. But I may be able to get away with moding my ghetto front link mount. She is getting a new body, some new paint, and a little maintenance that she deserves. For now, I got her on her feet. Still need to work the front end over. Measurements of the GC3 Before the tear down. In 45 mins I was able to fully dis assemble, and take some measurements. But restlessness, a pepsi, and 2 hours later.... More to come soon. Need to have her done by Sunday. And hopefully have some time to run a pack through her for testing. |

So I got her finished. Didn't have time to paint the body the way I wanted. Soaked all the bearings. Cleaned stuff up. Pinted the wheels and axles. Looks much better. Bearings soaking New rear housing, then it got a trim Ready for sandblast Sabdblasted She sits a little higher than I like, but I'm going to try it as is. |

Thank you. As long as the wheels in my head keep turning, and I'm poor like I am, then it's getting rebuilt often |
