Nice and neat. Everything Mine isn't HAA... I like the Batt and the home made chassis, how much chassis GC you got with that??

Looks good except for the lower link mounts. The rod ends being mounted that way is just one more thing to get hung up on.

You need to proofread. And those links on the bottom of the axle will get hung up, Otherwise it looks good.

Love the body! Looks good. The lower links will probably hang up, but test it out and see how it drives.

thanks for all the replies, i have driven with lunardaisey quite a bit and they dont get hung up at all really, i havent found a rock yet that catches on them. if it does catch on somethign it catches on teh diff case. i get 2 3/4 inches of clearance underneath teh chassis and the body is a parma chevy truck. i am currently going to paint my chassis so i will post pics whne that is done here are the specs: wheelbase: 12.5 inches clearance: 2.75 inches esc: super chicken motor: integy 55 lathe chassis: custom made from sheet aluminum, 5 inches long at the top and 2 and 3/4 on the bottom links: mostly revo links except for 2 traxxas. trans: pede trany i would mount the links differently maybe but i havent had any problems yet but if i do i will. edit: this truck Does climb the "Rock" that lunardaisey and his "stallion" posted a video of.

HEY!!! I just noticed you have your top link mounted the same way I have mine on the axle. I didn't notice those lower links though... I wont even say anything. Eh.... Maybe I will. You got the stock TLT stock still right?? There should be a double-holed mounting bracket, that should do ya...

yea i have those in the front shocks cause it lays em down a bit mor bit it seems to limit articulation a litte in the reaar if i do teh same, it will jsut take tweaking... Btw: already am designing another chassis, hopefully with the trans layed on its side.. thanks , later |

Do something different than mine! Please! It's no fun if you do everything the same as me. I was never going to show you my chassis plans. If not that give me some credit. :neutral: I think this should be in Chit Chat rather than Tech but whatever. I would rather see 30 dollars in my hand than that truck. Your such a scam :? . Cya p.s.- I doubt it will make it up the rock even now... And it has climbed the rock twice. And he has to have alot of speed. He has yet to make it up consistently I locked my diff with solder and it worked alot better than the JB. p.p.s- Nice Antenna Mount. lunardaisy* Last edited by lunardaisy; 08-11-2005 at 11:28 PM. |

Are those the traxxas chrome wheels? Are they front or rear? Did them mount right up or did you have to modify them?

They Are traxxas Stampede front. Half of them are died black. NO modification but they suck because they don't let you thread the Wheel Nut on very far. Cya |

lol , for all those out there i have climbed the rock several times jsu tnot several with this setup. i did it twice however jsut before i left last time. For the record, i slowly got my front tires onto the top of the rock and then gunned it, only then.
