|  Beginners TLT-10 w/ stock chassis
Hey whats up guys, while waiting for my bulu to come in I built this truck to kill time, and because I had the parts around for it. Anyways here are the specs and stats: (pics to come once I upload and link them all) Monster tech CF chassis stock tranny with 48p spur custom threaded links RPM super duty ball cups bearings in the steering knuckles Tobee craft wideners HPI MT2 dog bones locked diff locked axles Associated MGT shocks Custom body mounts Rubicon Body Hpi wheels Imex Claw dawgs Electronics: Novak Rooster Integy lathe futaba s3003 steering servo Traxxas 2 channel AM tx/rx It crawled really well for a stock chassis tlt. Just wanted to show it, I know there are a lot of people who have bought TLT's from ultimate hobbies and are probably not sure what direction to go with it... Well if you are on a budget this truck works great! I know its not a stock chassis, but its the same shape and layout... If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks! PS: once I get my bulu I might consider getting rid of this truck, not sure yet but feel free to PM me if you are interested. |

Yup it sure does, that is my bros old truck, those axles and electronics all went to his tuber, the only thing I used from it was the chassis and front link.

Is that how you mount the battery? Have you found any better alternatives? I slide mine down at an angle towards the front.

I will admit I took some ideas from there, but I have learned way more from this site than anything. although the pic that lunardaisy posted up was the truck in its original state that was in the process of being built before that article |
