what chassis are you rinning? modded tlt chassis?

1.1 sport trac 11-05-2006 05:15 PM

cant decide yet but iam leaning towards an sw2.

viper7016 11-05-2006 07:19 PM

check out K2's chassis, long or short. Its pretty sweet.

hlpressley 11-05-2006 07:32 PM

The Black Anodized SW2 is sick. I had a Kaetwo and finally got everything switched over to the SW2 (black of course) and there is absolutely no comparison. IMO the SW2 is the best out there but once again that is my opinion.

CoolManLance 11-05-2006 08:01 PM

dont forget about an XRC chassis. Just got mine and i love it

1.1 sport trac 11-05-2006 08:13 PM

i will probly do with the sw2 when i get the money.

1.1 sport trac 11-05-2006 08:18 PM

while iam waiting for my stuff to arrive what tires do you think i should run moabs or mashers. And body wise f-350 or hpi jeep wrangler or the new land rover body from hpi

Rc EnthuSiasTs 11-05-2006 10:27 PM

is the terrain smoother or rougher. I have heard if the rocks are smotther, moabs, if the cours has more rough terrain, m2k's.
I like the new land rover, looks sweet!

1.1 sport trac 11-06-2006 03:28 PM

for wideners could i use the shafts from a tamiya tg10 touring car and the hexes from it to gain a half inch. Then use pede rims (front or back which one has more offset) to gain another half inch

so

tg10 axles + pede rims = 1 in width gained is this enough

1.1 sport trac 11-06-2006 06:39 PM

The specs that i have decieded

sw2 with mounts
masher 2k's
super chicken
hitec 645
tlt widners
pede tranny locked and loaded
wrangler, landrover, or silverado body cant decide
12.5 wheelbase
2.5 driveshafts
futaba 2 channel radio
locked tlt axles

Rc EnthuSiasTs 11-07-2006 05:53 PM

and whats wrong with that:roll:

Jk, I know.... everybody has a jeep body, inluding myself!
