Default LMoosekey's RC4WD TF2 Class 1 Build
I'm excited that Rc4wd gave the chance to have this rig!
I received this rig last week and left out of town the next day. My first impression was WOW, the packaging was 1st class I couldnt believe how organized and simple it is.





Today I started working on it the frame went together really easy the instructions were a piece of cake. In about an hours time this is what I Accomplished.

Yea it been tuff for me it was sitting at my house for a week before I've had a chance to work on it!

I'm not 100% on the paint I almost always paint everything blue, on this one I think I'm going to paint it white with some blue stickers and I may flat black the hood.

well I got the leaf springs put together and found my first issue with the instructions. Its says to use a 3x6 screw from the top and it just doesn't seem right to me. so what I did is replace the screws from the bottom with a 3x16 screw put my spring on it and then used a nylon nut and it seems to work great.

Matt I'm sure you'll have one soon! The bed liner I stole from Boob Dude but it's really cool.

So here are some updates on my TF2. The front leaf mounts have been flipped and the steering links moved for a high steer setup and the bed has been bobbed about and inch shorter. The rear of the chassis had to be cut about 1/4" shorter to fit the bob job. Metal sliders and bumpers are coming soon. Here are a few pics.

I decided to take this rig to Axial's Northwest Scale Championships for class 1. So time to make it competitive.

RC4WD sent me a 4 and 3 link kit and Rockedup Ricky sent me a new skid. I have the 4 link installed with shocks, I had to do some easy mods to make it work right. any pointers would be great
