He will be ok as long as the springs are stiff enough. But you are right Marcus if its present its going to be hard to fight with the shocks mounted there. |
awsome looking rig, another rig from boyer i met john last sunday at the Bradenville comp he had some chassis with him up there. |
torque twist is really bad . this is my first shafty and man is it hard to get the twist out . as in the pics the shock are mounted to the links . my problem is the links roll causing the twist . try different springs / shock oil / even shocks . back to the drawingboard :shock: |
What do you mean your links roll causing the twist? |
as i have stated move the shocks to the axles and mopve the top of the shock to the front hole on the mount they will be laid back a little more giving more artic but also should fix most of the torque twisting problems |
yet another pic of the little guy . this time posing on top of my Super trucks . maybe you can see in the pic i moved the rear shocks to the axles and droped the front of the shock down. this really helped with twist . i also changed springs again . moved 2 of the batteries to the rear axle . anyway on to the pic http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...rawlers002.jpg |
It looks tiny next to your supers. It looks great. |
here is a pic of it at S.E.R.C.R.C comp (Buck's Pocket) on the final course . ended up with a 6th place finish . not bad for me and it being a new truck . only has 3 packs thru it even now . http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/03844910.jpg and another http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...sPocket016.jpg http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...sPocket121.jpg http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...sPocket026.jpg |
8-) Here's a link for a video... : http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/videos/43065-badds-boyer-%2A%2Anws%2A%2A.html |
Nice rig! DO you know if that is solid rod or tube? I am guessing solid as I don't see a ton of bracing. The aluminum plates could be hiding it, but I can only see the last few pics (I cannot see the ones on MSN). I hope to put one together this winter (when its not 100 outside) and am slowly putting togther my tools. |
Trikster it is made from solid rod . the builder is John Boyer , he does really great work . I have always wanted a Boyer Buggy . here is a few more pics of it getting "NUCKING FUTS" . http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...GT91706056.jpg http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...GT91706052.jpg |

well the little Boyer now has a new home in OR. it was sad to see it packed up and going out . @tw!ll is the new owner maybe he will love the little rig like I did and keep the pics coming |
Oh yeah! Can't wait to get it. Scoping out some cool crawling spots right now. Definately get a few pics when I get it (if it's not raining:-(). |
Got it! Wouldn't you know, it's pouring rain.:-( Just my luck. Hopefully this weekend it will dry out a little.:) Thanks to Badd for such a bada$$ ride. |
you can change the name of the little BOYER , but to me it will always be Nucking Futs . lol I name all my rigs and that name just fit it well . it is to do with how I got it . anyway glad you like it / drive the piss out of it and have fun . "thumbsup" |
