| hdhdhd'S " mrc "
Here she is my " mrc " just got the chassis back form " VISE&HACK ". Springs above and full droop below. Well this is the design. Well this " VISE&HACK " located in my Office, Little Shop, Spare Room, and Closet Well you can guess the rest. Props to my " POPS " for making me this cool work bench. With out the bench I would have never started on this chassis. Finished Chassis. Droop with no inner springs in shock yet. More to come later! |

Thanks for the comments. This is my first crawler and hand made chassis for that matter. When using the stock shocks, will any ball point pen spring work and what weight shock oil? Any help is welcomed.

I do a lot of work with a vise and a hack saw! Nothing wrong with that, you can get some precise cuts with the saw and you can get a file right up to the edge of your templates! Keep up the good work..

| Thanks for the compliment Ryan. Here are a few pics from what I have done since the last post. Turned the original rims into Beadlockers. Added BBs, Added the Proline Flat Irons. I made my own full-size servo holder threw in my airtronics servo off my brother's truggy. Brought the bottom links in closer to help with the twist. Once again, thanks for the compliment. Give me a call tomorrow if you still want to go and try yours out. Last edited by hdhdhd; 05-25-2009 at 10:18 AM. |
