Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Actually looking through this thread made me want to try some brass chassis building of my own for my trekker. Nothing as crazy as this yet, but def. want to give it a try. |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Oh man. I had forgotten about this brass masterpiece. |

Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Well its alive kind of :ror: The monster motor killed the sumo t case real fast..So I made a new stronger one "thumbsup" 1/8 music wire 4 bearings & some aluminum mod pinions with some delrin, this is what I got: http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps90b4ccad.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps4ed759dd.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps958cf828.jpg Its just a bit bigger than the sumo one but its alot stronger! http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps8ac21f1e.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...pse06483ab.jpg I need some more grub screws to double up on the traxxas yokes as one grub won't cut it for more than 4 seconds... http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...psa54172c9.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps6718e95c.jpg After a run to the lhs for some grub screws I will get a teaser vid up tomorrow...It will blow your mind, this biotch is a beast! On 2s its nutty & 3s is pure insanity, I can't belive the power :shock: |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. I like the solid-ness of that T-case. "thumbsup" |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. I'm sure it's not as bad as it looks but how heavy is this thing |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Yeah!!! I was just thinking about this rig the other day:ror: The T-case looks great bro, should hold up good for ya by the looks of it. Can't wait to see the run vid with all that said power:mrgreen: |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. My neighbor has my old hobbywing 18T and 18A ESC (it was silly in my 1.9 MRC Pro) exactly like yours in a Redcat Sumo Micro Truggy and it's stupid fast! Wheelies at any speed, and it'll do backflips on command from a slow roll. I can't wait to see what a rig that can put the power down will do! |

Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. I can totally believe that dirt got into the t-case :shock: :lmao: It looks awesome bro and like usual overpowered:ror: Nice work!... I think we need some Qlo action! I see lots of power to balloon them suckers out real nice:mrgreen: Hows the heat with the GH? You find a good oil? |

Well I got a little more done, wheels fixed qlo rubba back on, t-case sealed, beefier outputs on the axles & ditched the rear steer for a solid axle...I can go back to rear steer with a easy change up of the tripple walled tubes if needed, but with the power it has I doubt I will. http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps4ee5bd00.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps0fee1d67.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...psfec95963.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...psc821027b.jpg Sealed t-case with the rally's & qlo's back on! http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...psba464646.jpg |

Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Thanks Mike wait till you drive it! You will giggle like a lil school girl when you pull the trigger "thumbsup" :ror: Those shocks up top are bigger than they appear in the pic, they are for a 1.9 project.. All old skool tlt cross member parts except for the losi mini crawler lower ball ends & stock losi micro springs... |

Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Yes sir 3mm screws from the tlt kit cut down some, with stock losi micro springs for internals: http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps13579f27.jpg They are for a mrc mudder project. |

What drive shafts did you use and did they mount with no modification. If so how did you do it. Awesome build! |
Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Sorry for the late reply Bear...The are losi mini shafts & the mods are on some of my other builds...Just have to sleeve the yokes & extend the axle shaft on the axles to get a good bite..I turn down some 1/8 music wire for the job on sumo axles..Never had to run such a beefy shaft on a losi axled rig.. So I pulled this of the shelf last night & started adding some more brass...Front end starting to take shape: http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps895106c5.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...psdd354283.jpg |
