| Xr10 to Bully2
I have found the itch again to get back to crawling after a 3 year absence. I previously owned a pretty stock Xr10, Ax10 and a Wraith. I then built an Xr10 with all Vp bling and Chaotic Switch chassis. So here i am looking to build another crawler. I've ordered a chassis, B2 axles and some links. I will post my whole list of parts and some build pics as they come. As for now it feels good to be back and building again. |

Should I go with 475 hubs, 600 or 475 front and 600 rear? Never had bully's before. |

Fist of all - nice list of parts Last year I ran 600 all corners with CI 1" wheels. For this season I'm changing to 350 in the rear to get it a bit narrower. It's mainly because of the rocks we have, a lot of sharp turns into and out of the gates. |

That's good advice, thank you. I might try 600 front with 475 rear and see how it works. I already have 350's from a previous crawler so I can always put them on instead.

Still waiting on my chassis and plates from Dravtech. I have to order some tires and i will start putting together a rolling chassis. Im thinking of going with bully comp ties from Rc4wd. How do they compare to Voodoos? I will post pics once i get everything i ordered. I would like to send a shout out to Eric from Dlux, his parts and service are second to none. Thanks Eric |

They are very similar, except the RC4WD Bully are narrower, a very good thing, and the OD is a bit smaller... They allow an enormous amont of steering without hitting shocks or lower links... The compound is very sticky and soft... A lot of grip... Only thing is the foams are way too soft, useless... CI double deuce is the only way... Last edited by noname0383; 02-02-2016 at 06:21 PM. |

Thanks for the likes guys. I am putting a roller together for now to get things somewhat dialed in. Just ordered a couple sets of tires, some wheel spacers from Dlux and some no preload cups for my shocks. I should have went with 725 hubs up front cause my back screws for the Dlux wheels are hitting my steering arm barely though. Didnt want to buy new hubs so i went with the hub spacers. More pics to come soon. |
