Went together W/O any issues, I think the new version looks great. I really like the added shackles & new leaf spring design.

I am gonna do Electronics, Steering, Body & add some much needed weight to the wheels as this goes along. (may-bee actually do some video)

"thumbsup"

this thing lookes amazing :shock: im looking to get one of these chassis's for my micro when im not to busy. i also like the rims too, did you have to glue the tires to them or are they a snug fit?

Looks super nice man, makes me want to spend $$$ on mine...

You should Glue them for a proper fit. You can run them W/O glue but will suffer in obvious situations.

Thanks & that is what will happen. :mrgreen:

I have a CJ-7 Model body that I will throw on, Probally the same one you have?

i got the same chasis too, urs looks pretty sick! what r u gona do about ur steering? just run a longer servo horn?

I made an extension for my SMC earlier... Not sure if I am going to keep that idea or go different route.(longer horn)?

I will try and get some pics posted this evening on the steering setup I run on my SMC+, I am also working on a better monting system for the steering setup on the SMC+
I will get that finalized when I get some free time and if anyone else has any questions or needs assistance with anything else please don hesitate to send me a PM

Sorry I am not trying to highjack your thread just wanted to post some pics of the steering setup I have been testing, and it works
great, basically I used servo tape or rather foam tape to fasten my servo to the top of the front axle and looks to be working
great.

By the Way nice Job T-buck looks awesome

Blade

is there a way to have the servo mounted on the chassis? probably have 2 do like a micro hand bros set up lol

Right now hooking it to the axle is the best way and easiest way, but I will definetly look into other options and keep you guys posted on what I figure out.

Blade

Thanks Norm.

No!! there will be No chainsaw action happening. :mrgreen:

Thank-you

How is the axle rap? my original Smc wanted to twist up the leafs real easy.

axle wrap isnt that bad it has some but not as much, it would flip the truck over b4 it wraps bad
