|  Custom Built 4-Link Trophy Truck
hey guys thought id post some pics of my custom built 4 link slash. the front end is from a 2wd slash as well as the transmission. the axle is from a wheely king. the shocks are from a savage. the lower links are delrin ax 10 links and the axle is an mip axle for an ax 10. the cage and everything else is custom built. the cage is built from tubular stainless and is VERY strong. the chassis is made from a piece aluminum plate bent around the edges to add rigidity. for now im just using a bumper of a rustler for protection but i plan on building a tubular bumper with aluminum skid plate for it soon. the truck is also very tough. ive only broket the rod ends for the shocks because they are plastic. the aluminum rod ends for the 4 link set up seem to hold up pretty good havnt had any trouble yet. the truck is alot of fun and really drives like a real trophy tuck. jumps great a tad nose heavy(just like the real trucks). its looks really scale drivin around. lookin for feed back lemme no what u guys think         |

What's the width of that rear axle and love the cage A few more questions what kind of speed are you getting and what is the gear ratio in the axle ? Last edited by dirtracer37; 05-13-2014 at 03:45 AM. |
