| Hittman's mini
Here goes another one... Little back story first.. I had bought a rtr mini crawler about two years ago and was very happy with it. I eventually made changes and I was extremely happy with it... Well, one day I decided i didnt want it that much anymore and sold it. Three or four months ago my buddy was selling his and i got an urge for a mini crawler again, So I present to you the mini rockshow. He had it fairly stock but it still worked great. I added my touches here and there and now it is fitted much better to my crawling style. I am hoping my club will have a 1.9 class this year, and as of now it is looking like it. So, I am anxious to see how it will do in a comp situation. Now, onto some specs: Chassis/ suspension: T1e mini rockshow chassis Stock mrc shocks in rear with 20wt oil Mlm shocks with cap mod up front, 20wt oil Stock T1e lower links Stock T1e front uppers Axial 60mm post rear uppers Front axle: Mrc Pro axle with metal lockers LCC knuckles, C's, and Cvd's Custom tie rod and drag link Stock T1e servo plate Rear axle: Mrc Pro axle with metal lockers Stock T1e rear 4link plate BWD bomb proof shock mounts Electronics: Novak mini mongoose system Cheapy 2.4 system, soon to be futaba CC bec set to 6v Savox SA-1283sg servo Hyperion 3s 240mah lipos Trans/ driveline: Stock mrc driveshafts Stock Mrc Pro trans with metal lockers Tires/wheels: Custom 4.25" mini rovers RC4WD dc-2 wheels 1.9 Pit Bull foam in rear Proline flat iron memory foam in front Now some pics: Link and shock position: Front at 7 5/8" Rear at 7 3/8" Last edited by Hittman; 09-19-2012 at 07:49 PM. |

I am so glad some one talked you into them wheels! They look sick! Tires look like balloons! Nice clean wires, good looking rig Christian.. Now.. the flex shot, two pics up, on the foam.. Is that a hole from shaving the sidewalls too much! You better get that guy that made them, to fix that... Last edited by winnerone23; 09-19-2012 at 08:44 PM. |

Truck looks great. No knuckle weights? Love the look of the shaved 4.25 rovers |

a pretty as the blue screw in the servo is, i would definitely recommend against having an aluminium screw anywhere in the steering.

Wow when you sent me a pic of the wheels you were getting I didn't know they would look that nice They look sick! How heavy is your wheel and tire combo?

Thanks man, They definitely changed the look of it.. I dont have the exact weight on hand. I will try and get that over the next couple days. I do know that the rears are unweighted and the fronts have 1.5oz, but i am not sure of overall weight. | |||

Nice! Did shaving the sidewalls help that much or any at all?

| Re: Hittman's mini Yes, It does make a big difference. When you are sanding you have to be careful not to go through the rover sidewall because it is already a thin sidewall. If you are not comfortable sanding, just cutting the side lugs off really makes a difference too |
