| opinions on chasis skeeter or cdw lt2
I am looking at doing another chassis and wanted to hear some opinions on the fubar skeeter vs. the cdw lt2. The chassis look very similar and just not sure which one I am more leaning towards. Thanks

i will say go with the Fubar chassis because i have seen them,built them and ran them and i will say that they are tough and have a low cg!

I have never ran the CDW so I cant say....but I run a fubar skeeter on my bully comp rig and it works REALLY well. it's taken one hell of a beating too.

I like my rig pretty low (2.50"-2.75") so if you like higher clearance for your area 4" may be just right? | |

Ok cool. Thanks for the info. Also I noticed on one of your threads that you drilled out the knuckle to run a 4mm bolt. Were you able to still use the brass bushings or did you just go without to finish the comp up? I have been having problems with mine as well. They keep coming loose and I have been using red loctite. Also the knuckles seem to be a little to sloppy anyways. I emailed RC4WD about this and I never heard back from them. The brass bushings could fit better in the housing in my opinion and a little tighter over the bolt as well. |

I still can NOT find a way to stop those knuckle bolts from coming lose...red or blue thread loc ...sitting over night...mine seem to come loose no matter what... I just try to keep them snug so it does not beat up the threads... |

Ok good to know. So I guess it prob won't matter on uping the size of the bolt. I figured maybe changing to a standard bolt size or something with a finer thread to get a better hold. | |
