Re: TMNT 6x6 Looks great. Nice job. |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Changed over from dual 4-link to a walking beam. Might try to attach the beams with rod ends so it get a little more articulation. I think it's pretty good though. Much more solid now. Just have to make everything pretty now. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...cecdd36c5d.jpg Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 What chassis did you use? And was it hard to cut and glue the body? |
Re: TMNT 6x6 I used an SCX10 chassis then for the rear added section I used ascender frame rails. They have a bunch of holes for the variable wheelbase. Wasn't too hard to cut the body. I used styrene to fill voids and strengthen the seam. You can see in the pictures where I cut and filled. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...01db740b3f.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...b293ac941e.jpg Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Thanks, looks great. I am thinking about cutting mine right before the fenders. Put thinking to use a dremel or by hand saw. |
Re: TMNT 6x6 How did you mount the body? |

Re: TMNT 6x6 |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Pretty cool rig. How do the ascender rear rails fit the scx10 chassis? Have both currently at my disposal but would save me some effort making a new chassis from scratch. |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Fit pretty good. I used an ascender skid to connect the two. Had to grind down the part of the skid that slides into the back of the SCX10 frame. Have 2 bolts at each corner holding it and it has zero play. That last picture you see looks nothing like what I have now for the rear suspension. Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 |
Re: TMNT 6x6 So easy the way you mounted the body. Unfortunately i dremeled those mounting points away |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Can we see a picture of the current walking beam rear suspension? Thanks! Ben |
Re: TMNT 6x6 That last picture is current, though not a walking beam. I seam to not have taken any pictures of the walking beam. I attached both axles with an aluminum plate and had it hinged in the middle. The hinge was bolted directly to the frame. There was no shocks on it at all, didn't really need it.

Re: TMNT 6x6 http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017...983c757125.jpg I am now running a front motor mount and a transfer case. My idea was that I don't really like the pass through axle. If my current suspension setup works like I hope it does, I plan on running no pass through. I have the transfer case that has dual rear outputs. I would then run a second transfer case and each rear axle would have its own driveshaft. I also just purchased a set of metal drive shafts from Cross RC, that were made for their 6x6. They look very nice, can't wait to see how they perform. Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 I recently purchased some CBERCFAB gear shock towers. I inverted them and used them for my link mount. Works better and looks way better as well. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...124e766313.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d119a1c74c.jpg Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Looks good. I am working on a turtle 6*6 truck myself also. Inspired by this one and another turtle truck build here. |
Re: TMNT 6x6 That's probably the one I was inspired by Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
Re: TMNT 6x6 Just picked up some Pig Snot bumpers and sliders. Also went to 3 link panhard cms setup. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f0aa7133a4.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1c7f497f96.jpg Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk |
