Jason, give me the dimensions and how wide you want the hump and I could do one at our Hot Rod shop...We have a machine that puts nice beads in flat steal or aluminum...I think it goes up to 1'' wide...

eric, I'm running 82053 on Ralph, Dad is running 82063 on his. I was running the 63s on Ralph with the TLT axles but wanted to run the 53s to bring the width down so he'd fit on the trailer. I put my old 63s and All-Ts on Dad's truck. K9, thanks, but I can make it if needed. |

12 tooth pinion, 93 tooth spur. Wheel speed is good but it seems the 450 is a tad too small for a 9lb rig. There are times when it seems to not have enough bottom...like when the fronts are against a vertical face and you push the truck into and up the vertical. Since we're running 3300s I'm guessing it's not the batteries. A larger stator size would probably help. |

Six cells are all that'll fit under the steering wheel. This truck was light during the build but we added a good bit of steel and lead to keep it planted. It'll creep through climbs that the comp rigs struggled with. This past week has been a frantic build/drive/build/drive test and tune. A larger outrunner will no doubt cure things. The motor stays cool to touch but seems to wimp out at times...even with gearing pushed as far as we could physically go. |

ScG he has a brushless setup as it is. I might order a larger motor for his truck, still debating which motor to use. Dad is happy with it as is...plenty of truck for him. |
