| 2.2 "Benny"
Hello Rcc, My 2.2 Clod I call "Benny" Been working on this for a few weeks, still need lots of work before its RTR. It's sitting on M2K's right now, I want to get some of those Rock Claws, seem to be a good tire. I've been out of the loop in the rc crawler world for about a year. So theres all kinds of new stuff out there, at least to me. Spec's Clod axle's. BTA steering Home-brew chassis Hitec servo's, 4ws. Super Rooster ESC. wheel's are temp', I plan on doing a custom set of wheels. Heres are a few more pic's. |

Welcome, looks like a great rig. But how is it a 2.2 Clod when it has Maxx wheels on it? I think you will find that the Losi claws are too short to work well on a 2.2 Clod. You won't have any diff clearance. |

Maybe not. With shaving and narrowing the track width as much as possible. They might work well. Or not. I haven't tested it that far yet. Pulling the tires in tighter to the Diff will help on Diff Clearance. | |

Your right about the tires, I'm thinking of a different tires, I'm drawing a blank on the name though, I remember them being a bit taller then a masher/ Moab. | |

At full width, the diffs would hang on everything. | |

Good looking rig. Who's rims are they? You know 4WS is not legal in 2.2 comp! Instead use the third channel for DIG |

Thanks, I made those wheels a while ago, never used them though. They were my first attempt at making some wheels, so its pretty cool to see them on a rig. good Idea on the rear dig |
