Re: My WK
 

i got bored with that pretty quick and it got put on the back burner while i built my slash up from a roller. In around July i pulled the axles and transmission and bought my level 3 clocked motor mount and transmission mount

i ran this on a rail type chassis with no suspension (because i was getting bored) with a 3800KV CC motor and Sidewinder ESC i blew up the stock transmission on 2s lipo on about the third run (plan to fix with mod-1 mod)

i then swithed to a TVP chassis, made from 3"x .25" aluminum bar, with an upright traxxas stampede transmission (bad for low COG) truck was crappy so i made a transmission/skid plate out of some .25"x4" aluminum channel

best pics i got from before i machined it
i took out the brushless and swithed it for a 21t traxxas stinger and xl5 esc
works good

BTW this machining of the chassis saved me close to 2.5 pounds total i forgot to weigh it before i assembled it (im impatient)

ask any questions and please give me any advice/feedback you have

Re: My WK
 

The finished product is badass, is that the gmc topkick body???

Re: My WK
 

yeah my buddy had one lying around so he gave it to me it was actually an art project for college that he messed up on so i scored its heavy and its close to the length for the truck but that doesnt matter to me

Re: My WK
