|  TLT 4-Link basher? Hi, Im planing of building a TLT 4-link basher. Anyone done this? Id like to build a mt that will be driven more like the real thing, jumping/bashing. Im thinking of using a pede tranny, tubechassi and ofcource tlt-axels. I want to use an 1:10 body, so I need to stretch it some as well. But what do I need to make different from a crawler? What do I need to make extra strong? etc .... Dont need that much flex I think(30 deg maybe). What shocks would you recomend? Might want a faster motor then a 55t, but I dont want it to fast. Just fast enough to make some decent jumps. Maybe 35t? And wheelies? can it be done? Last edited by Micke_b; 04-30-2006 at 02:59 AM. |

|  1. Im planing of building a TLT 4-link basher. Anyone done this? 1. I have really seen a fast TLT before, except on URC, and other speed weirdos that think TLTs should go like hell, but it can be done! And wheelies? can it be done? Doubt it!! Sounds like you need a ta02 truck!!!!!! this should be in newbie general too! |

| Yes, Im a newbie, BUT, Id like to know what you tlt-crawler guys think thats why I postet it here. And I dont want it to be "superfast" I just want good bashing speed. And I want the tlt axels because I want a 4-link stiff axel setup like real mt:s, like gravedigger, maximum destruction and those trucks. |

| If you are not going to be crawling much then stick with the stock chassis and tranny. For decent speed install a stock motor, 27t. Also extend the links and run some maxx shocks with mgt stiff springs. you will end up with exactly what you are looking for  Take a look, my very first tlt lol, exactly what you are wanting...  |

| In it's stock form, a TLT is already pretty much a "basher" - Out of the box, it isn't a racer, nor a crawler - It's just a small scale MT. So, get some nice electronics for it, toss in a 27t motor, and see how you like it in stock trim. It should do wheelies no problem, and even some small jumps. If you stretch the wheelbase and toss in a lathe, even a 35t, you are probably going to lose the wheelie capability. |

| I wanted to do something like this but have it crawl to. I realized I couldn't do it because of locked diffs+speed=messed up drivetrain. I learned that on my rustler. |
