Iv got some sweet ideas for the rtr chassis. Includes cutting and drilling. I'll look into it more once I get the mini wedge chassis and everything out of the way

I don't think it has been done before. So it might be ground breaking. Or it might be a bust!!

All back together. Just kinda threw my electronics on the transmission with some Velcro since this chassis is gonna be retired for a little while in a week or so. Probably going to clock the hubs tomorrow so tires can clear my control arms and springs. Or should I wait for aluminum chubs to do it?

clocking the hubs is done by modding the axle anyway, so it's gonna be done for when you get the aluminium ones and they will fit just the same as the plastic ones on your clocked axle ;)

That is true. But read in troys thread about some c hubs being clocked slightly stock. I didn't want to get it clocked with the factory husband have it to far back with new hubs. We will see what I feel like doing tomorrow after work though haha

Clocked the hubs tonight. Not to much. Not to little. Clears the links a lot better. Troy told me to shave the sidewalls on the rovers. So gonna be looking into that soon

Oh you know. Just sending more money to Troy. Hell I might as well get my paycheck direct deposited to his bank account...

But paid Troy for BWD mini wedge chassis. Mongoose 18.5t monster motor and esc. Also getting front and real links and link plates
