I'm leaving the BMV as my comp rig.

I'll either weld more tubes onto the Bronco or there is a Dtrail frame coming with the axles I bought that may be cool to use. I'd like to do leafs in the rear and 4-link the front to resemble coils.

If you remember, the Bronco wasn't that far away from being a full tuber:


Sell me one of your R2s and put the money towards the new disconnect model!

I won't be competing this Sunday.:-( I just have to much stuff going on to finish my comp rig. I will try but I doubt it will be finished in time. However I will show up and help out where needed.

Default scalers

yes it is limited travel. not shure if it has to be leaf all the way around ? i do no @ least front or rear needs to be leaf i think. i would have to go look @ the form scaler build. also the stearing servo can't be mounted on the axile.

How does this pic look? I took it with my new cell phone...LG EnV.

It's my Dig system using a TLT steering knuckle and Maxx shafts.

I have the new blazer bodies in stock, Ambush, Bushwacker, F-100, Courier, but you can't go wrong with the C-10! It's a classic

I finally got my new tuber all buttoned up and dialed in, I THINK!!!!!!! Also I started takin rocks down to th hole. I found a stash, just need a few more trips. The Colly's only so big!

Mascman, this is your 2nd chevy body, what's going on.!?

as nice as those bodies are, the blazer, ambush, and bushwhacker are IMO WAAAAAAY too high, i think one of those would kill my comp rigs COG.

i am using a parma grashopper body, which i kind of messed up the mounting holes a bit while installing it (i painted the body first before making the mounting holes, D'OH!) but it works for now. it's just a shame that no one locally carries them in stock new....

here's a pic of what body i think i will probabally end up using....

SteveStock and I are meeting in Bridgeville and heading down if you want to follow. I could call you when we are leaving but it is going to be early. Being the prez and treasurer...we need to be there to set up the course.

Let me know.
