Default Phyuck Yiu's Berg Superjuice

After having problems getting cvd's for my Clod, I decided to try a Berg super.

Parts list:
Y-Town Superjuice chassis
Super 300's
Vanquish Berg knuckles
Losi 4" shocks/grey springs/JeepinDoug's C-Cups
GH servo mounts
Custom Heli Parts CF servo plates
2 sets Hpi black 8 spoke wheels narrowed and glassed
Rovers and leopards
Crawler InNovations dual stage foams
New era hexes
Holmes 55t w/Robinson 12t pinions
three JR 8711HV's w/JR al. horns
Jr8103 w/XPS 2.4 module,6 ch. rec,lipo,and G-Force balancer
twin FXR's
Outrage Xp 1800(3s) and 850(2s)

I started by modifying the gear boxes to accept an additional upper link mount and long tube.
I then made some single clamp servo mounts and had them powder coated.


In my wheel base jig with lower links mocked up.


Out of the jig all mocked up.


Links done with 10-24 allthread sleeved with stainless tube. I also had stainless shock mounts made and TIG welded to my lowers.

Thanks guys, here's some more.

Electronics ready to go in.


I cut out a couple pieces of lexan then mounted mounted the electronics.




All done with frosted lexan panels.

Thanks, you can't go wrong with krawlfeak's products.

After a couple of comps I decided to clock the rear axle 20 degrees.(Big thanks to winkscrawler for letting me use his clocking tool)


I also ground the nub off.


I did not like the fact the hexes fell off when the wheels were removed, so I added some set screws.


Pic of the fiberglassing I did on the wheels.


Last but not least the flex shot.

Great looking rig! What tires do you prefere? I'm currently running leopards on my super and they grip well but don't side hill well, I'm having trouble getting foams setup up to give proper support when side hilling. I've been trying to decide between making some custom rovers, another set of leopards or plowboys.

Hit up NovasArk for Custom Rovers and foams for your super. You won't have to look back.

thanks, NovasArk seems to have one hell of a reputation around here. I"ve shot him a couple PM's and am trying to sell some stuff before I purchase new foams and tires.

how wide are your wheels? I'm thinking about mounting some Rovers on my 40 series axial beadlocks, I believe they are 2" wide. that should give me about 7 to 7.3 inches of height if I'm not mistaken.
