| Another Super Build in SC
Well this will be my first build thread so bare with me. I've always wanted to build a super and when Run2Jeepin's super came up for sale I grabbed it up. Those who remembers this truck know's it came with a Pimp Cane chassis. The set up was good, but just wasn't what I was looking for. Specs: 2x of Eddies 4 mag 40t motors 2x Brxls 2x Hitec 7980's one front and rear. I've got a brand new one if need be. Big CC Bec 7"-7.5" Sedona's on Tec5 wheels I think, Hpi blast with Rovers or custom pin tires in the future. Alot of Ti links in the future. 65:1 Bully axles. With me being a machinist and having a few engineers who oh me favors I may look into better lockers and designing new tubes. I had this arrive today I'm trying to get it ready for our local comp this weekend, but Im waiting on my servo mounts |

This thread has been long over due for an update. I finished this build last year two weeks before Turkey Crawl with the help of some great friends. Took this truck to Turkey Crawl and some how ended up Third |

As of today the only changes that were made was removing the SCX shocks in favor of some 4" shocks. Decide to try those mounted straight to the axle instead of the link. I built some 7.5" white dot blocks to try out. This is a pict of how she sits today. The super bullies and possible the chassis will be up for sale very soon. In the works is set set of Super Bergs with all the Dlux parts he made. What Chassis you ask well that's something I've yet to determine. |

| Re: Another Super Build in SC You could have custom skins made with the Bazooka Bubble Gum logo and comics on them and since you were "yelling" at us in the other thread... Last edited by ittybitty; 08-09-2012 at 01:41 PM. |
