Double J 09-14-2006 11:46 AM

OK....

When I was a little boy about yey high I thought to myself...... Wait you ment on the rig?


Well I had the clod axles laying around the house since December. Thought about selling them, but never could get myself to do so.

So now I have a project I think you'll like.


It will have..
the axles and lathes of caurse.
I have a tq3 and a 4 channel, but I haven't decided on which one yet. I still need to get the 4 channel operational.
It will have a 1:6 scale body on it. So I'm kinda going for a scale look. (There were two on ebay the other day. Ford looking)
It will have a Ladder frame. Which I'll work on tonight. :)
Still working on the suspension set up.
I need to get some maxx adapters or figure something out. I have some wideners I got from RBL a while back to trade. I'll post in the wanted section.

I have moab XL's and 2 sets of 1:6 nylint wheels so I'm going to see what I can come up with. If I can't trade for the maxx adapters then nylints will be on it.


OK I've given more than I wanted to allready.. Man I just can't keep a project secret..

jason 09-14-2006 11:47 AM

So basically you've got nothing but a set of clod axles and some dreams?

Double J 09-14-2006 11:49 AM

No Dreams.. It is REality.. My reality.. Do you want in?


Edit: I have everything...except the maxx adapters. Just need to put it togeather, and brace the chassis

Double J 09-14-2006 12:12 PM

Well I have a plan for the 4th channel. But if I can't get it to work then the plan will be shot to hell.

I'm pretty excited about what this could be. When you say BFR I have a feeling your not joking.

Double J 09-15-2006 10:30 AM

I was able to get some done yesterday. The body should be here by now. And I'm still working on the tire issue.

I was missing a couple parts for the tires but they are on there way.

mulchman 09-15-2006 10:35 AM

Always interested in a Clod build. This thread is keeping me in suspense. Need pic!!!

Double J 09-15-2006 10:42 AM

EDIT: took a pic at lunch but didn't upload it. I decided to eat lunch for the first time in about 4 weeks.
