| starting a slow Trekker Build
hows it going everyone, im a new member on here but been stalking the forum for quite awhile and it got me inspired to tear into my Losi Trail Trekker and build a scale/crawler. my TT right now is mostly stock except for my RC4WD Beadlocks and Mickey Thompson Baja Claws, running no foams only air. I also put a couple quarters on the rear axle to add weight and relocated the battery upfront. my plans for the rig are to order the SMC Blade 5.5 chassis, and i want to find a model of my actual truck, i own a 1995 Chevrolet Pickup, so any 90's Chevy would work, i just want the cab and make the back out of Styrene and make it a Truggy type RC, and then maybe order up a set of Miniqlo Miclows down the road. anyways enough with the talk onwards with the pictures right?! first day out of the box then i quickly ditched the Losi stickers on the side and put some McRc tires on and moved the springs lower to lift it then after awhile i decided it was too top heave so i ran the droop setup, got painted neon pink, and the got well used and abused then a bag of shiney new parts came in then swapped all my new parts on, painted the body flat black and thats how she sat for about awhile, then i found this site and inspired me to start working on it again! ill slowly be updating this as i go along, so enjoy what is down the road for my TT |

well glad i lucked out and bought a jewlery screwdriver set at my local hardwear store and it had the right size to work on my TT yesterday..and something happened when i was working on it ill let the pictures explain first it lost the doved box it had then it lost the back doors and the this happened im thinking what im going to do is order the SMC Blade 5.5 here soon, or i might try my hand at making my own frame outta brass, then i might order me a 90T motor, does anyone think i should change my spur gear to anything or just leave it stock?, then make longer links, then get some MiClaws should be a fun build |
