Fisrt tuber and bronco body My buddy is in the process of building his first tube chassis. Here are the firdt stages of the build. I found this new bronco body at Kmart on that little chassis. It's the kind that turns while in reverse. But I couldn't pass it up for ten bucks. Comments welcome. Thanks. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0452.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0454.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0455.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0456.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0457.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0458.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...7/IMG_0459.jpg |
Hey brian, do the tires rub any on the new body? looks like the rear might be cuttin it a lil close. Mike looks like hes off to a good start, but isnt that gonna put his weight up a little high on the truck? even with a lay down tranny...the cog is still gonna be pretty high. And does it flex good still, the shocks look a little too verticle. Cant wait to see then both run! |
It's finally done. The body was lying on the chass!s !n the p!cs. Body s!ts H!gher now. Tires don't rub at all. Well at a couple of odd angles they did a little but I think it's going to be fine. Didn't want to cut any on it anyway. Mikes is a little high. It does have good ground clearance but won't know until he gets it all together. drive shafts may be a little difficult. Flex is good but he's still got some rearranging to do with links and stuff. Hope it's done soon so we can go out and run. |
Yea, the links on the tube chassis won't work the way they are mounted. They might allow for some flex, but won't allow any up/down axle movement. The links need to be mounted as close to parallel as possible. Looks good though. |
