|  Raptor chassis?
Are the raptor bodiless chassis still available anywhere? I have been looking for a while but i cant seem to find one. If they arent what is a good comp style chassis thats not crazy money? Im looking to build one of my micros for comp style crawling i have the dp torsion chassis now but i want it to be more capable.

id put it in the wanted section.... are you talking about the Micro Raptor V8e? I got mine in an ebay auction that came with a slew load of bodies, frames, etc.... I really like it... When I asked what these bodies were.. someone said a raptor v8e and said he had an extra if I wanted it. Someone else jumped on it so they do exist in peoples spare parts.... I like these 2.. if i had to pickup one.. for my 13yr old im thinking of getting Blade TMC V2 Topless Blade TMC V2 Topless Micro Chassis [TMC01] - $32.89 : Crawler X, Rock Crawler Parts this one seems nice too RidgeBack Topless RidgeBack Topless Chassis Kit [RB01] - $34.78 : Crawler X, Rock Crawler Parts |

Both of those look nice. I like the ridgeback the best. Does anyone know how they are perfomance wise? Im not really going for looks on this one. I have 2 others that are more scaler builds.

Yeah i saw that. It looks like it works good. Is he really gonna make some to sell? Seems like a lot of work to put in for someone elses rig. Maybe i will try to build one. Im a machinist so a tvp type chassis isnt hard to make its just the designing of it that would be hard for me. I have made some nice scale type rails for 1/10 and 1/16 rigs. The micro just seems harder to deal with

i'm looking for the "right" chassis for my hummer body too, but all i can find are bodiless comp chassis... i'm sure i'll find one soon, but these look nice too! Looking for comp inside, hummer outside! Chassis Kits : Crawler X, Rock Crawler Parts Results for Crawler Parts:Losi Micro Rock Crawler may just figure a way to mount my body on one of these  Last edited by rson123; 09-24-2013 at 07:00 PM. |

Personally if you want to do a hummer body.. with interior as much as you can, etc.... you want to not have a chassis but use the model... I bought a ford pickup and basically it was the model with shocks mounted, axles and trans.....  | |
