| PTI Tuber
Well I decided to build a pti based tuber. chassis was made by a friend r2d bm9 brushless motor pti axles pti shocks axial beadlocks axial lizards Here the chassis I started with. I cutout and made my servo plate for the r2d. Still not totally finshed yet. I have put my axles on and shocks. I have made my own lower links and havent started on my upper links yet. Now just waiting for more parts. |

Are you jumping on the droop suspension bandwagon or will this be a "traditional" sprung setup? Looks good so far. Don't f- it up |

Far right now it going to be a drooper. I thought with the springs on. It was sitting a lil to high. But I going to run it in a few weeks and see how I like the droop. |
