Thats an awesome piece! The plastic rod end tops on the integy shocks always make me nervous...have never broke one, but they make me nervous. Nice addition...rig looks sick as usual!

Thanks Jim! Yeah, I never broke one of the stock Kyosho caps either, but I would, on occasion, overtighten them which would cause them to leak. I am pretty happy with these new shock caps!

I like your steering setup on the Berg axles. Is the rear set-up the same as front? Does the servo work hard like this or is it pretty smooth? Could I pretty please get some more pics? :)

I see these pics...

Do you have screws for the servo mount going into the case?

Re: Ivory
 
The steering seems to work well. I can still stall the servos if I really put it in a bind (I was trying to see if the servo mount would hold up to abuse), but nothing that I feel is detrimental. The servo will get slightly warm after running a few courses, but not hot. The front and rear are setup exactly the same. I just recently ordered some Lunsford links to replace that wimpy little drag link, but other than that, the steering is finished.

I'll snap a few close up pictures for you this evening. "thumbsup"

Re: Ivory
 
Yeah, I just drilled and tapped the case to mount those front screws.

Hey can you tell me how wide your skid is on the outside? I'm trying to figure out how different the widths and length of the lower link mount holes are compared to the newer version superjuice chassis.

JeremyH 02-29-2012 01:01 PM

Re: Ivory
 
Sure. I'll measure it this evening when I get home. "thumbsup"

JeremyH 02-29-2012 04:18 PM

Re: Ivory
 
The skid measures 2" wide. "thumbsup"

Ok thanks bud. "thumbsup"Ya the newer version is prob about a 1/4 narrower. I was wondering why I was having a hard time running straight links up front. It binds a little on the rod ends.

Re: Ivory
 
Ahh.....just to make sure, I gave you the measurement of the skid only......not including the thickness of the chassis plates.
