almost forgot about this site lol

but im over on rcmt mainly ive posted it on rcgroups and rcu too

but yea im trying to sell of one of my clods right now(its sale pending!) so i can get a better transmission for it so i can finally run it on full 6s power (2wd with 6s capabilities ) few weeks video of this thing on 6s!


heres a video of it on 3s with paddle tires with the old trans

cannot wait till i take this to the dunes on 6s with those paddles gonna be VERY sketchy lol


in that video i didnt have the suspension setup i have in it in those pics, the new setup should be really stable

Nice building so far. Have you drove it with that rear sway bar setup? Looks like it needs some reworking, as the control arms need to be level at ride height and the links coming off the lower arm/link need to be vertical at ride height.

no not yet still have to replace the trans(sticking a supershafty axial trans in it!)and need some kingpin bushings on the knuckles of the rear axles before ill be able to run it with this suspension setup


really is just a mockup atm will be dropping the mounting hole down probably an inch or so also will be getting a plate of aluminum here in a few weeks to make a new chassis and tvp setup(gonna try to get it cnc cut if i can aslong budget allows)


also will be fixing the axle angle too so no angle on the shaft with the suspension being halfway compressed
