My rear lockouts from Shapeways didn't last long! Took a single cartwheel tumble on about a 45* slope and this is what happened............



Looks like I need to hit up my go to guy for some stronger ones.......

A little dash of Old School just for fun.......................................

I guess I need some SMW Kevlar or CF lockouts.

[travis c.]

So Mr. Robbob at Krazed Builds convinced me that I needed some more weight and down lower. So I went from this..........................


To this................................


I broke one of the "horseshoes" while trying to open up the mounting holes to fit the Bully2 knucks so I made some new ones with the trusty Dremel. I also wanted the weights as close to the tire as possible so I used some shorter spacers than what comes in the kit and also put a bevel on the Delrin outer retainer for the slugs to hopefully prevent tire scrubbage.



I painted up a new body too and in the process learned to never use window tint spray paint. It bled through in a few places but that's not a big concern.


I'm having to re purpose my CDW stickers, took this one off the old body.


Yes, I am aware that my painting skills are somewhat larfey.
Thank you Mr. Robbob for your assistance!

They're my keepsakes of the days when you could read build threads all day, drool over the cool stuff you saw and wanted all of, manual machine labor ......... Yota crawled and Rob built cool trucks (and finished them )

Its all I got left

[Almighty Malach]

All my of stickers are on pit mats and toolboxes. I wish I had more...

[Robbob]

I bought a used LCC a coupe months ago ... don't laugh ... but it actually had an original CDW dig mount kit still in a bag with hardware.

First reaction was 'no shit' ......
Second reaction was 'no shit its got stickers too'

[travis c.]

Well I guess I'll just have to get a new tat, maybe two.............

[travis c.]

Placed an order with SMW for some new 1/8th inch Ti upper links, was really surprised at the difference in weight compared to the 3/16th! Also made some new upper link mounts out of 3mm CF, the 1.5 had a tiny bit of flex which I wasn't fond of.

Indeed, and thank you for the help E.



Some Kevlar link mounts would be SCHWEET! I guess I need to sweet talk Mr. Bradshaw.

I want those motor skid you have there. also I'm trying to get some skid under my axle I don't want to get the courage to sand it down lol i mean i have done a lot mod in RC to PC and almost anything i just don't wnat to man up on this build like you did. good job travis

[travis c.]

Thank you much, the motor guards are just those 5hr energy drink bottles. I get the off brand ones cause they're cheaper.

They are also thinner and have the "wrap around area" that covers the endbell.
