Default scale cr01

hi guys,

juz got myself a used cr-01.

want to convert it to a scale chassis but not sure how.

currently own a scx10.

i must say both rigs r worlds apart in terms of trailing.

if there's a link or pics would be much of help.

thx.

if you can find one, a junfac Lizard chassis is a great option.

Lizard Scale Chassis for CR01 [J10024] : JunFac.com

Kinda rare over here, but may still be a few floating around over there. Otherwise, you'll have to do something custom.

The CR01 chassis can be turned into a more scale looking rig, it's the huge axles that are the problem. I lowered my body and switched out axles with tamiya high lift axles and this is what I ended up with. Even smaller tires are what's next.

Looking good, especially after switching the axles and I assume the cantilever suspention. Go for smaller diameter tires too.

Thanks I am thinking 1.5s would look good. Although I like the cantilever suspension I did switch it out.

Thanks I'm actually most likely selling these tracks to get the new evo ones. They have never been used if anyone is interested.
