We can make custom length links for you, and can also provide a complete chassis kit if that's something you're looking for. You can view this thread to see a few of the chassis and components we offer for the Clod: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40087 Take a look at what others here use for their crawlers. There's a large ammount of vendor support for the Clod and many great chassis to choose from. Good luck and welcome to RCC! |

If you're on a low budget and are willing to do a lot of fabrication yourself, then do it yourself! I made starting with a stock clod and I spent £20 (about $35) getting it to this standard.. |

if you have the time and tools you should make your own chasis like me and if you don't buy a clod tuber chasis from a vender |

links are SIMPLE to make... http://www.rccrawler.com/links2.htm The only hard part would be trying to figure out the legnths.Other than that,its cut and piece together |

You got a hacksaw? Vice? Tinsnips? These, along with the stuff you already mentioned, and a £3 tap, is all I used

MAKE THE LINKS yourself all you need is some 8/32 allthread 1/4 inch brakeline and traxxas long ball ends. pretty easy. already made homemade tuber and now i just finished hamemade chassis. moab xls proline beadlocks 12-14-23mm wheel adapters stock motors with 13 tooth pinions just got motor mounts and 8 tooths waiting on some 55 turn lathes. check out our web page and a couple of our vids.
