Talking Another SW2 crawler I named EVA (56K warning)

This is my first crawler and I named her project "Eva". This was a working progress since 11/05 when I bought a stock TLT on ebay. Thanks to rccrawler for good source of info. Now to specs and pics..

wb=12 1/2" (might stretch it 1/2" more)
width=10 1/4"
clearance = 3"
Chassy = SW2
axle = TLT (locked front only, will lock rear once 55 lathe is in)
tranny = locked pede w/ ball bearings 18T pinion w/ 87T Spur
shaft = pede sliders (2females and 1 male)
wheels = front pede (narrowed inner rim)
tires = swamp dawgs
motor = stock (55 lathe backordered)
ESC = XRS
servo = Hitec 645MG
radio/reciever = futuba AM
body = beater ford (still designing the paint for pro-line Ford Courier)

Stocker



Stock Chassy w/ pede tranny



guess what's in the box?

SW2


front


back

I'm working on painting the new courier body right now and still waiting on a freakin motor.

Can't wait til this thing is done so I can hit the rock garden at the park near me. For now she's a dog runner.

Nice job. I like the white body on that too. I have been waiting for my lathe motor since November and it has shipped according to Tower. They are still listed on backorder so there must be a huge demand. My SW2 has just been sitting ever since.


Just curious. What springs are you running? Losi White/Red??? Thanks alot.

I got my lathe from rc4wd and they sold out the same day i ordered it.

I'm using losi whites on front and Maxx reds for the rear. I used to have losi white on all 4's, but the torque steer is too much. So I put the reds back for the rear to compensate it.
