That was it, thanks

[Hulksta]

Those springs look like a good option, just depends on if they are firm enough.. Let me know how they go, im thinking of buying some too.

A bit of work tonight... clocked my axles... Had to install Jato rod end on my rear upper links so i'll be able to clock the axle better...
Will probably have to bend those links too so they clear the motor at full compression but will wait to receive them before, just to be sure...

As Postclanker suggested, i ordered the internal spring kit so i can tune my ''in cab'' shocks...

Internal Springs for ARB and Superlift 90mm Shocks

Thats about it for now... waiting for my electronics from HH...

[noname0383]

By the way Dan (Hulksta), do u have the measurements of all the hardware on the chassis? Would like to order some blue anodized harware for it... thx

[noname0383]

As for the skins... (Top is not install yet!)

8mm, 10mm, 14mm, 20mm

The 14mm are the ones in the skid (locally named Thong lol) and you'll notice they are stainless, they are a high wear location, when i put purple screws through mine i kept SS ones in the skid

The heart and soul of this alien just arrived... HH br mini dual smashed w\bec and 2x crawlmaster expert... Still need to install, configure, etc...

[Postclanker]

Your smash looks nice and small
I thought I'd put mine behind the rear window....what's your plan man ?

Thats how i run mine, it was only ment to be temp but it worked well so i left it... well protected there too

[Krawler Konceptz]

Thanks! Skins ordered before electronics.. . Welcome to the darkside

[Postclanker]

Lol, been in the dark since I bought this chassis
But I'm seeing the light....

Will try to fit electronics in the chassis... but i think i will have to smashed the bec differently cause right now, it wont fit... quite tight in there

I think yours is a bit lower even....my shocks measure 83mm eye to eye with an internal limiter (3mm) 40wt oil and the softest Losi Mini-t spring I can find (pink). Still playing with it. I'm not sure I want to limit the shocks any more, or use a different shock shaft to get it any lower, already at the limit with the shock mount locations.

I think my goal would be to get the top of the cab to be sitting below the top of the wheel at rest...

What are those front shocks Noname? And do you know what their length is?
Want to know where you plan on your electronics also....
Looks great Noname

Thx pal

Front and rear shocks are Axial alu scx10 shocks... 90mm eye-to-eye, with Losi MRC silver soft springs... 35wt oil all around and no limiter for now...

Will probably try Losi rear Mini-T silver soft spring if they are softer... and thicker oil, something around 40-50wt since they are quite lay down...

As for the ''in board'' shocks, stock plastic scx10, one with oil, the other with internal spring... I received my rc4wd internal spring kit (u recommanded) and it looks promissing, couple of differents rates to try...
As for the oil, don't know for now... Better thicker oil?

By the way, very nice build u got there... keep working, looks great man...

any updates? i just bought a riddler single shock mount but no shock and looks like stock scx 10 deadbolt shock is a bit long even fully compressed?
awsome rig has bergs and only complaint so far is gc is way less than mantis on xr and mantis on bully's but hoping once i get cab shock in and center pivoting clearance improves. now come on with the build

With the single shock mount, this is an earlier chassis. The shock needs to be around the 55mm length eye to eye

thank you

[Postclanker]

now that I have my skins from Michelle @ Krawler Konceptz
was wondering how you mounted yout skins on the top and the nose noname...I don't see any screws

also doesn't appear that your shock interferes with the skin on the nose...mine does a little...but I have the dual shock

[noname0383]

Absolutly no problem with the shocks and skinz...

As for the "hood", I used double side tape and it seems to hold very well... The top isn't install yet but I will use zip tie as usual... I'm waiting to finish tuning my 2 inboard shocks before installing the top... ;)

[Postclanker]

good idea with the tape....probably raise it up just enough to clear the shocks
thanks man

[Hulksta]

I screw the roof on mine... the bonnet ive used CF tape for the full CF look on my old rig.. but this time I'll drill and screw into the delrin bonnet too.
