Longer shocks is pretty much it for that kit as far as I've seen.

Have you tired out the tires yet? I'm going to get shorter links and make my SCX10 a D90, and I was thinking about getting Dirt Grabbers. Thanks |

Not bad. I have the same SCX10. I'll probably get the tires anyways, just for scale looks. Then throw on the MudSlingers or TTC claws when I don't care about scale driving... Thanks for the input though. I'm not sure how wide of a 1.9 you can get, but you can get taller ones. My TTC claws are 4.75" tall and just over an inch wide. I think all of the RC4WD 4.75" tires have those dimensions, if you're fine with a tall tire (this might not be a good idea though, as there might be a lot of body rub and you'll probably have to cut the body up)

Also, what colors will go on the body? I'm thinking about doing a "Firenze Red" with the white roof. I will be referring to this thread for the body and maybe even the rims... 3 Stages of Hardbody Paint Weathering |

I dont know about the tires yet Im afraid to hacked this body lol Floor pan is to short for this d110 Since this body is made from 2 d90 body So i came up with the idea of using 2 d90 floorpan First floor pan cut it behind the front seats Second floor pan cut off the front where the firewall is (next to the motor ) And just glued it together Nihm battery have enough space under those seats Nihm battery under the seat |

Spray in very light coats. Go over one section of the body, go very lightly. Go in long strokes and completely cross the shell. If you stop spraying in the middle of the body, the paint will pool up, which will not look very scale... This video applies the same for hard bodies like the Defender 110, but make sure to use PLASTIC paint, and NOT lexan/polycarbonate paint. Plastic paint does not adhere to polycarbonate and polycarbonate paint does not adhere to plastic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujALKjbcwfM Hope this helps! I'm about to order my D90 kit, just waiting on about $30... Last edited by -SCXD90-; 03-31-2015 at 02:29 PM. |
