|  Silver Bullet
I'm start yet another build. Yet I have about 10 other half way started projects. Some of the parts came in today some I had. This part of the build I bought today just for this build and every other build I use this to help me through my builds. But does take up some of the build money since I have to buy alot to finish the build. Hence the name of the build.  The new Special Edition Hustler Chassis powder coated black since that is the only way it comes.  Here is one half of the axles that I will be using. I'm going to use aluminum axle tubes also.  |

Having you been using those ali cases already? I'm thinking about getting a set because I keep breaking the dern things right where the Stick chassis mounts to it. I'll probably run mine like you have it pictured though, I don't need the extra blink and don't see the need for an all ali axle in my situation.

What is the total length of the chassis without links, and how tall is the chassis, and could you get a better picture of the skid plate. I would like to make a 2.2 hustler WK but cant justify spending $330 on it. I would much rather find out that they are the same, just the link differences. Thanks. |

I was wondering since the name of the thread is "Silver Bullet" could you cut the alum can and make one of the body panels out of it? Might look kinda cool. |

Worked on the shocks today. The previous owner of the traxxas big bore shocks didn't do much up keep on them the oil was black inside them and leak like crazy. I can't really say much because they were free thanks Nathan. I'm not worried about the leaking but cleaned them up real good. And put them back together.     |

Well I'm trying to figure out which screws go where on the chassis. I got the links on. The front shocks are mounted.  I'm ordering another alum case from TCS.  Aluminum axle arms and aluminum knuckles from JP customs.   |
