Heres my first TLT Build up!! I just started with this body. and my custom chasis.. but still in progress in fact my chasis is very simple. but I am having a little problems with my driveshafts, the angle is too far inclined. but I am building double yokes... I think it will work Last edited by JeeperoManiako; 10-07-2006 at 11:52 PM. |

You might want to try this first. Cut some of you out puts down on your tranny and drill out your driveshafts yokes. So they slide over you tranny out puts. That maybe enough to fix your angle. Also it looks like you can lower your tranny just a hair without giving up any ground clearance too. Here is a pic of the tranny and Revo Shafts Dez did for me.

The angle of the shock has changed from it's normal position because the rear end is twised. If you look at the mounts they are the same side to side, they both lean in, and the shocks appear to be mounted on the axle in the same place on each side, so just they way it looks in the pic I'd say. If I'm wrong, you might consider working with only your good eye open...

Hmmm... I like this truck, once you get the shafts sorted, it'll be a nice blend of scale and performance. Good job on the chassis, it follows the contours of the body well. Cheers 8-) |
