Sven's 4-TEC 2.0 Rally Hi there, my name is Sven. I'm new to this forum, but not new to RC :) Been racing/bashing RC cars for over 10 years now. Since i'm into rc rallying and this forum seems to be most active in rally topics i decided to join and post my build here "thumbsup" I own multiple rc rally vehicles: Traxxas Rally 1/10 (the 'Slash' version) Kyosho DRX VE Tamiya XV-01 Long Damper spec HPI WR8 Flux Aaaand.. the Traxxas 4-tec 2.0 :mrgreen: I choose this car for some reasons: - Part support is great in my area - Raised front bumper - Solid chassis - Sealed driveline So now the build :) First thing to do is cut away parts of the chassis so the suspension arms have more free room https://myalbum.com/photo/g715tLZiR6Hv/540.jpg And some grinding on the front arms to create more space for the C-hub https://myalbum.com/photo/irCouJii4bZR/540.jpg Difference stock vs modded https://myalbum.com/photo/SKbUWJ8dDVVa/540.jpg The increases ride height made that the steering rods hit the chassis, so this part also needed some cutting/grinding https://myalbum.com/photo/5ROQLmtKrKW9/540.jpg The stock shocks are short with not much stroke so I ordered some longer ones :mrgreen: https://myalbum.com/photo/X1aa6hkUk2iA/540.jpg No we have some more ride height! The ride height is actually al little more than my XV-01 long damper ;-) https://myalbum.com/photo/To7f09WjYn5k/540.jpg The chassis bottoms out before the shocks do! Perfect for not landing flat after a jump ;-) https://myalbum.com/photo/5XrIGUXsPlsG/540.jpg I ordered the Traxxas 4-tec sway bar kit, but due the increased rideheight they hit the drivecups.. https://myalbum.com/photo/2Ch9KRCuvS2D/540.jpg Some bending on the sway bars should solve this. Stock vs bended :) https://myalbum.com/photo/nswiD2D3Tcyj/540.jpg Problem solved :D The sway bars work perfectly now https://myalbum.com/photo/S4e1MU3AiiG9/540.jpg How it is now :mrgreen: https://myalbum.com/photo/gsCLbqHJgYcs/540.jpg https://myalbum.com/photo/2fJkQqu6eeys/540.jpg Next to my XV-01 long damper https://myalbum.com/photo/gLi7lPKdnaEC/540.jpg https://myalbum.com/photo/6JqUiexNqlyw/540.jpg https://myalbum.com/photo/IUJ9ER7jxJqj/540.jpg https://myalbum.com/photo/mfMLKiZhbxPp/540.jpg https://myalbum.com/photo/E391JS6VwQWx/540.jpg |
