Hunter green or any color green that has been "weathered".

Tupers · 03-28-2008, 11:12 AM

I can't wait for these to turn up in the Uk. Can you tell me how wide the axles are from hex to hex?

LumTheMad · 03-28-2008, 02:19 PM

From the other thread about it: "206mm, outside of the hex to the outside of the other hex."

STEEL_CITY_CRAWLER · 03-29-2008, 10:55 PM

so does this include the rest of the parts to just build the dampers like normal, so you can eliminate that stupid assed, over complicated cantilever set-up tamiya seems to want to put on ALL of their solid axled trucks?

Looking gooooood, can't wait to get my hands on mine should be here this week.

srjeeper · 03-30-2008, 06:22 PM

Looks great,The tranny is geared low,so would you recommend using the stock motor,or a 55 turn motor.Any idea how many turn the stock motor is.

I have a 55 turn motor set aside for this truck,when I get one,just thinking it might be (dare I say it) too slow, with the gear reduction of this tranny.I don't want to pull it apart more times than I have to,I'd rather get it right the first time.

Slyp Dawg · 03-31-2008, 11:00 AM

as I said on scale4x4, this thing really isn't my cup of tea. I will admit that it is great for tamiya to be marketing a kit as a crawler, and the body is beautiful, but the chassis is overcomplicated, and it will probably hang up on rocks a LOT. the axles were served with a side of beef, but they are simply too wide for a scaler and look too prone to hanging up on stuff to be used in a comp rig. it is a nice looking kit, but I think tamiya missed their mark on everything except the body and tranny

JasonInAugusta · 03-31-2008, 12:09 PM

Focus07 · 03-31-2008, 12:09 PM

Had nothing but rain this past weekend - not good weather for taking pics.

Focus07 · 03-31-2008, 12:29 PM

I understand. I wanted to paint some bodies too this past weekend but the weather was crappy, its even crappier today. I got a Axial body to be painted, a Rdlogics Sho buggy body to be painted, a Proline F150 Rustler body to paint, and a Tmaxx body and........a few others.

TwistedXT · 03-31-2008, 03:24 PM

Yup, been cutting decals, waiting for paint, waiting for the weather to break, and working on stuff for a vet that lost both legs in Iraq. When a guy like that asks you to do work, you do work.
